Graphic Design Contests

Hi guys:

I'm looking for a couple of banners to be made for a community website.

I'm looking to have different themes through out the year. Autumn, Winter, Summer, Spring.

I have attached an example of a Autumn header, i'm not looking for it to be over the top, jsut something like the one attached but in Autumn, Winter, Summer, Spring type of look, graphic/colour. I would like the headers to be the same as the one attached.

The headers are for www.oldstmellons.co.uk

Can u please comment on my headers? and is there anything u can tell me that u would want on it to make them look better?

**Juice Daddy** · 12:42 AM

here's my entry: (rough draft)

could use some touchups later... but for now that's what I am entering^

as always, the watermark comes off with payment, and I will send it in a zip with the psd, png, and gifs if I win

**woosh** · 09-20-2006, 12:24 AM

ooo they are cool JD

**rhysgregory** · 09-20-2006, 03:19 AM

Hey JD, they are looking really good, i don't want to be a pain or anything because your work is really good. Would it be possible to replace the snow mountain with a tree with snow, field with snow.. or something like this, and the green summer mountain with a gree field, perhaps a sun. Excellent quality. Really goood

Critizen. I really like them, especially how you have left room at the top like the others. excellent.

Woosh, they look really good but perhaps a little too neon'y... they're really bright and i don't think fits in with the sites' image.

Thanks guys

Rhys

thanx, and it's not a pain to change them, those were just concepts

personaly, I didn't like how the fall and spring backgrounds and overflows worked...

I will see if I can find some better stock imagry...

edit:

lol, I might just have to render my own...

**rhysgregory** · 09-20-2006, 12:31 PM

Anyways, i think they're really good, and i look more than forward to your update..

i thought the oveflows were pretty good... but have a play around by all means...

**Rakien** · 09-20-2006, 07:16 PM

Hmm... I don't want to seem rude here, but could you offer us a sum of money instead of the template? I'd realy like to participate in this contest but I have no use for a pre-made template...

JD: They look really good

Rakien: Instead of the template, $20 is up for grabs, your design is really nice as well. If you can, make some for the different seaons, so i can see the type of graphics and style you'll use. thank you.

I can see this is going to be a tough one..

I'll pick a winner in the next 24 hours. If this seems too short to get their entry in, then let me know and i'll extend it slightly, thank you.

**woosh** · 09-21-2006, 09:19 AM

**Rakien** · 10:20 PM

Please look at my previous post, I have added two more headers.
