[WTB] $20 Logo contest

I'm looking for a new header for this site:
http://www.BackpackAustralia.net

Sorry for the confusing title, what I'm mainly looking for is to replace the header on the site.
It does not necesseraly need to be a logo in it, just a good background with the title:
BackpackAustralia.net. It should also be possible to add a subtitle or a slogan; "Your ultimate guide to Australia"
or something like that. As you probably see, the site is far from complete, but the colour theme will stay the same. As the url already has revealed, the site will work as a guide to backpacking australia. Therefor I need a spicy header that will attract younger people to Australia. The only requirement I set is that it has to look professional.



$Size: 876x213
Filetypes: jpg and psd

Reward: $20 (paypal)


I will try to give feedback as often as I can.

Good luck

 

Header and logo correct?

 

You will receive the logo AND the banner.

Tell me what you think.

 

Hi, thanks for your entry.

I like that your title fits well with the theme, but the background image doesn't really scream australia. Could you try to change the background image?

 

Hi spbx! Your logo looks pretty awesome. I also like your approach on the background image with the kangaroo. But the overall colour theme doesn't fit well with the rest of the site. Could you try the logo on a desert background, for example with a picture of uluru's rock and a kangaroo?

 

Here is my try. Any changes can be made.

 

Sorry for the late update guys, i've been away over the weekend.

The competition is now over, and the winner is spbx, with this design:



I want to thank everyone that participated in the contest, and wish you the best of luck on your next competitions.

Best regards
