Hi there

If any of your read my introduction to this forum you will know I said I was a bit thick on it LOL

I posted the details I have for a logo competition in the wrong thread and don't know how to move it. Hopefully one of the great Moderators of this site will do it for me but here is the link to it if they are too busy to do so.

Sorry Moderators give me some time to get used to where everything is and I am sure I will be whizzing round these forums in no time.

What is the purpose of the business; what do you do? That will give a little bit better of an idea of what to make. I based it on the concept of finding payment plans by graphing each...

Regardless, here's a sample. Colors, as always are changeable.

Hi there

Ok some of you have asked for a size for the logo my friend who this is for now says he would require a header and the size is width 193 height is 55 it is for a UK webiste he is starting as a broker to sell loans to people in the UK so the money symbol would be £ and not $ the domain name is My Money Solutions and if you go to that domain you will see the header area he would require the header for.

I can now say we can extend this to Thursday 3rd March 2005 and can now increase the amount to $40 but it must be good you can of course add in the phone number as well into the header which is 0845 838 5548.

Some wording you can use is
My Money Solutions
Loans for any purpose
Call us today on 0845 838 5548

You will be hard pushed to fit anything other than 'My M.....' on an image that small bojangles.

Thanks ahead,

Hi there if you go to www.mymoneysolutions.co.uk there you will see a template at the top of the template you will see a bit on the left hand side that says logo and on the right it has a search box. He wants a header that will fit the top of that template. He looked in dreamweaver and that was the size it said that area was.

But what he is looking for is a header to fit the top of that template.The white area at the very top but it must blend in with the rest of the template.

Thanks

bojangles
the header on the template is 193x55
that would be easier to work with than 100x65
cant get anything to look right with the info you want on it.

**bojangles** · 04:11 PM

Hello all

Thank you to grammapecos for giving me the right dimensions of the header. I have also amended it in the top post above as well

Like I have said before I am a bit thick on it but I was given these measurements by my friend.

So new header size girls "N" guys is 193x55

Heres my shot

**Jake** · 02-28-2005, 07:41 PM

Based on the size of the logo, putting all that text that you want on it isn't a good idea.

I put the phone number on it, there isn't much room for anything more. Your slogan should go somewhere else than the logo, especcially when it is as small as you need it.

Hi Jake

The slogan was only an idea to give people an idea of a Tagline they could use.

The phone number is important though as well as the Tagline.

Logo looks good but if you read above post my friend is now looking a complete header for the top of the template as he is going to be taking the search box out of the header so wants something that covers the top of the template and that blends in as well.

But I have to say some brilliant Logo's being made here makes me jealous I am not as talented as most of you seem to be.

**LGR** · 02-28-2005, 08:16 PM

So you actually want a complete header now, not the logo?

The table is 740 pxels wide and I assume the height is up to us, within reason, given that the cell will expand as necessary?

**bojangles** · 02-28-2005, 08:30 PM

Hi there

I was told by grammapecosthat the size was 193x55 but you say it's different. See told you I was thick LOL

He wanted a header the same size as the top area of that template as he is going to be taking out the area that has the search box in it.

**LGR** · 02-28-2005, 08:36 PM

Originally you wanted a logo to replace the image that is there at present. That area does measure 193 x 55. But you have now said you want a banner to fill the entire top section of the site and this measures 740 x 55. The height is now adaptable as we don't have any set restrictions, given that the cell which houses the banner will automatically re-adjust.

**bojangles** · 02-28-2005, 08:39 PM

Ok But he don't want something that is like a mega header as in http://www.simplygay.co.uk/ if you look that is way to big but hey give it your best shot as most of you seem to be doing and I have to say some great work being posted

**LGR** · 10:52 PM

Right, now we've got a clear view of what is required.....

And how it looks on the page.....
