    The width has to be the width of the blog (http://www.epicked.com). The height is up to you. I don't have any restrictions at this point.

    To clarify, there are 2 components to this contest:

    1. The logo
    2. The blog header
    Chewysmom, your logo is a good start, but the rest of the header looks empty.

    To all contestants:

    If you don't mind, I will give comments as we go along. It's up to you to accept them.

    I don't want to impede on your creativity, so will only intervene if there's something wrong or I feel there is a misunderstanding, but so far so good.

    A note of caution, however. Don't confuse blog header and banner. The two are not the same.

    DCStudio - The logo can be improved. You should simply send me the logo and the header. I might say that I'm fine with the logo, but then again, I might be fine with the others as well. That might give the wrong impression.

    The blog will review new trends and gadgets related to the office as well. So the logo and banner have to have that trendy/new feel.
