Contest Graphic design and site header

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by dealexy, Aug 7, 2009.

    hi,

    I need a graphic which will be used as a header for the site. The design and colour choice would be yours.

    I also need a graphic that shows a dvd rental machine.

    I have made a prototype version of a dvd rental machine with my biz partner, the problem is that this looks ugly as is just a robot and touchscreen monitor. An engineering company will take care of the outer casing, what I need for the site is a graphic that shows an example of the dvd vending machine.

    The site will be used for retail store owners / managers to give them information on the range of dvd rental machines that can be custom made for them.

    The winner of this contest must be able to accept payment via a credit or debit card. I do not have a paypal account.

    I do not know the costs for this, i guess $150.00 ?
    If your cost is more, or less, please let me know.

    Thanks.

    There isn't enough information for anyone to design.
    Does the website exist? What size banner? What should the banner say? Is there a name for your company? Do you already have a logo?

    I have Google Checkout, so I can accept your payment. However, I agree, more details are needed. Is it going to be like a RedBox machine?

    Seems like it is your first contest. Anyway, What a designer needs to know :

    1 - Since the website is offline, Do you have a screenshot to get an idea about the colors we can use?
    2 - Any specified size?
    3 - What do you EXACTLY want the banner to say?
    4 - Do you have any images that you want us to add in the header?
    5 - (OPTIONAL) What style you want the header to be ? (web 2.0.. etc)
    6 - Any deadline?

    Thanks! And we are all waiting for you to reply!

    Sorry, I am new to forums and i know nothing about design. Yes, the website exist when a design is made. I dont know the size of the banner, i guess a standard sized image that is suitable for a page header. There is not a name for the company and there is no logo. I need to purchase .com domain for this.

    Yes, i can send a cheque only as prefer not to send cash in post.


    I had to google redbox machine :)) Yes, something like that. To start, each machine will be custom made for retail stores, to fit into existing space size. If there is a demand then standard machines will be made.


    Sorry, most of the time i am generally stupid and do not think. Hope this reply helps you :)

    1 - No screenshot. Colors can be your choice.
    2 - No specified size, i dont know about sizes so i would guess a standard size.

    hi Genial,
    i thought i answered your questions.

    3 - the image doesn't have to say anything, or it can say 'dvd machine' or '24 hr dvd vending'
    4 - i do not have any images for the header. maybe a scaled down version of the other graphic of dvd vending machine
    5 - i don't understand web 2.0 graphic? i thought web2.0 was php and java? i dont understand...
    6 - no, there is no deadline for this.
