    Website: Invivo Host - www.invivo-host.com
    Contest End: September 12th, 2005
    Prize: 350 GR Credits + $43.39 USD
    Money Delivery: PayPal

    What I want:
    I want a total of 6 banners. These must be unique and I must gain full rights to them. I also require the .psds and fonts used.

    Each banner must be 650 x 122 pixels in size.

    There must be a banner for each of these following pages:
    Home - Suggestion: add server pictures and stock images

    Web Hosting - Suggestion: add server images, network cables, etc.

    About Us - Suggestion: use stock images, business pictures, buildings, offices, etc.

    Testimonials - Suggestion: people shaking hands, people smiling, etc.

    Support - Suggestion: someone wearing a headset using a computer or something similar

    Terms of Service - Suggestion: some documents and maybe a fancy looking pen on top or something

    Examples are on the current Invivo Host website but I would like ones that are more professional looking and clean.

    Be creative and make sure all the banners are the size. Choose colours that fit the current site well and look good.

    Make sure the banners relate to the certain page they will be on.

    Use the text in the current banners on the site for the banners you make so I can see how they look with that text.

    Entries can be posted in this thread, I will comment on all entries and ask if changes can be made on ones I like so you have a better chance of winning. If I am not happy with any of the entries, no prizes will be given out and the contest will be closed.

    I know a majority of people on this site usually make sigs. I would like to tell you this now, you will be more likely to win if you do NOT use brushing. Brushing is okay but use it subtlety and dont go crazy with it. Try using gradients, vectors, etc. However, brushing can look good if not used heavily and if it doesnt stand out too much. Remember, this is for a hosting site, not a GFX site or anything.

    I may be able to do this. How long is this contest going to be opened for? And also, can you point me to some good business pictures that i can add to the banner if possible? I've seen alot on your websites. Like photos of people or servers or w/e. Thanks if you can provide me with that, i'll work on it after school. :)

    I'm going to take a go at this. If I don't win, I'll just try to sell them anyhow.
