    My website is www.freecashcanada.com

    The header sucks, it's too big, and I just don't like it. I was honestly drunk when I made it, hence the uber-suckiness of it.

    I need a new header, or even a logo that I could throw up in the header space at the top of my site.

    Something Web 2.0-looking would be sweet.

    Mega Requirements:
    Must include all the words that are currently in the header, including the words "Free Cash Canada" "The WorldWide, Free Work From Home Directory"

    Color scheme does not matter; whatever you think would look best on the site works for me. Just so long as the font is Web-2.0-Looking!

    Regarding pictures in the logo/header, It's Time to put on your Creativity Hats, People! Because I have NO IDEA what kind of a picture I want in it!

    Any I'm interested in any kind of a picture that you think looks good, such as a cute character, or some kind of sweet dollar sign/Euro sign/Pound Sign logo encased in a silver circle...

    Or perhaps a cute character chasing dollars and euros in a circle? Who knows? ANYTHING GOES!

    It's YOUR time to shine!

    Once Again, A Header OR A Logo Could win!!!! If it's a sweet logo, Logos are actually preferred!

    Note:
    Since I want to keep a "Worldwide" emphasis, I don't want "Canadian" elements in the logo, such as Maple Leaves, Beavers, Jim Carrey, Terrance and Phillip, or Back Bacon.

    The Mega Ultimate Contest Winner will recieve $25 from me Via Paypal! (Plus a $5 bonus if your logo truly rocks my world!!!):eek:

    Contest Closes Sunday, August 31st

    Hey, thanks for the designs so far. That was quick! A quite decent start to the contest. Here's some input for the entries so far: (I will provide feedback on all entries)

    Sorensen-Design - Thanks for your entry! Nice start. I quite like the color scheme you used. I'd like a little less emphasis on the word "Canada".
    Also, coud you please remove the exclaimation mark after "free", and maybe try underlining that and "worldwide"?
    The background is quite good, and I like the splash under the words, you're definitely heading in the right direction. Maybe you could repeat the money logos, making them go around in a circle, (representing the world) and put the word "WorldWide" under that too... It might look cool, just some thoughts.

    SkySeven -Thanks for your entry! It's nice and simple, but I was thinking something with a little more detail... But simple can be good too, if that's your thing. Good start. Perhaps less emphasis on the word "Canada", no need to make it special looking or red.

    I will keep this contest open until Sunday August 31... All are welcome.

    Get out your Art Monkey and make him bust a Groove!
    A special thank you for all the people who enter... I know some people offer more money, but I'm just a broke college student and really appreciate people helping me out! I'm blasting all sorts of Good Vibes to all who enter.
    Good luck!
