Graphic Design Contests

**jeffmcsheff** · 01-14-2006, 11:13 AM

hi all , i have just launched a free articles site at www.frodop.com , as you can see the look and feel has much to be desired! Im looking for banner and little logo to go at the top of everypage in the domain. I need it to be linked to http://www.frodop.com/index.php . I would like the colours to remain the same but not a must , looking for size of around 740 x 80 again not a must. As with regards to logo , something simple that incorporates the Frodop .

If possible would also like something to go at bottom of page in a similar format , colours etc to the top banner/logo

look forward to getting some replies , let the contest begin!!

thanks
jez

Well CannonBallGuy, I know that the book I used is a free stock photo but I have to tell you that I do not appreciate you using it too just because the contest holder said he liked it. Designers usually like to be creative and think of their own entry, not blaintely uses the same photo someone else did.

It's ashame because I have experienced something similar a few times now on this forum and I just wonder why I am still here.

jeffmcsheff, at the moment it's 350px by 93px but I can make it any size.

It's a vector so scaling and colour change are not a problem.
