[REQ-BANNER] - For a personal photo album website

[antmay]

Type of Contest : Banner design
Prize : $60 via paypal
Contest End Date & Time : 1/24/07 at 12 midnight ( US Eastern Time )
Size Requirements : 766px by 268px
Color Requirements : MUST go well with a dark gray background website
General Requirements :

Please use photoshop for this design.

This banner is for a professional couple that has tons of personal photos to be shown online. Categories includes wedding photos, birthdays, party, family, vacation and etc ...

So the Theme might be "sweet memory" ?

The design has to be clean, artistic and creative.

If your design includes photos of the couples, please use any stock photos and I will replace it with the actual photo later. They have lots of nice wedding pictures I could use.

Also, if your design needs to include the couple's name, please use "Adam & Eve" ( on it own layer ).

You can also include any slogans that meaningful to the "photo" or "memory" theme.

Please use different layers for texts and photos ( if any ). So I can make simple alteration later on.

When designing, please take into consideration that the overall website is of a dark gray tone, and the banner must flow with it.

Lastly, please be creative and unique

Thanks,
Anthony

Antmay, "9Design" is printed in light opacity as a watermark on the design, so do not worry about any other patterns you see etc.

I will do yet another banner with more of the shaded pattern on it, see how you like it =]. Anything can be changed, just say

I have altered the watermark for this one. Here is another one I did..

And here is it with a warm Violet touch, interacting with the pink from the text. A nice contrast in colours =]

Of course, any colour scheme you have in mind, it can be applied =]

9Design,
Thats very nice design . Sorry about your watermark confusion.
Can u make the fonts more "thicker" and bigger

Thanks,
Anthony

i_luv_pitza,
The 4th design is what I like most....

3 hours more to go before contest ends....

Filled in some space. I added two very small opaque pictures in the background.

- Are those images ones you like?
- Would you like me to change the stock photos?
- Would you like me to try a new tagline?
- Anything you want added, would like to see, or removed?


EDIT: I think the design would look nice with a thin black line around it, do you think so?

 

[antmay]

MikeMacDesigns,
Its good now...Thanks for your tiredness revision.
Its really getting very hard for me to select the winners.

 

[MikeMacDesigns]

Here it is again, with a black border and a new phrase.

- Personally, I like it better with the black border, but my eyes like the first phrase.
