Hi guys,
I own a small Americian car dealership overseas in germany selling US spec cars to the US armed forces serving over here, we've been through some bad times with troops going down range etc... in the war against terrorism
we have decided to open a website to serve our brave men and women as they serve down range, and i need a header image, the size required is: 90 hieght X 940 width
i would like somebody to design us a small using the logo's from ford, chrysler, Harley Davidson and honda (these are the only american units i sell) i would prefer the background to be black, i have attached an image of the old banner we used, i want to try and get something more to stand out and have our logo on it.
payment will be made via paypal only, you will be asked to confirm reciept of the payment here as over the next few weeks we plan to hold bigger and better comps to get our site were we want it to be.
we also need a logo for our office, which is called, : Graf new car sales, i would hope that the logo could be somehow attached to the above banner, but if possible could we also get it sepearte so we can use it around the site.
i was thinking of something like all the fatory logo's to the left and to the right an image of our logo, but the creativity can be up to you,
can anyone help us get this image made??
we will set the deadline for enteries for Friday - June 22nd, as we wish to get cracking on with the site.
Thanks a mill for the help and we look forward to seeing your entries.
Evertonian.

i would like it with the logo on the same banner, but if we could also have the logo seperate that would be awesome
I am liking yours Will0wz, with the logo, but i was hoping to try and see something more for the logo, perhaps if the logo was like a circle shape hanging on the end of the banner that might look ok??
so far so good keep them coming.

Here you go i've managed to squeeze in a circle for the logo.. I've done a couple so let me know wht u think..
Bear in mind it's only 90px of height so i didn't know whether u wanted that small a circle so i made it go out of the canvas.
Click to view attachmentAlso i thought i'd try a star effect instead of a circl, what do you think?

how about we make the logo circle come over the banner i know you'll have to make it bigger, it just looks a little silly the way its cut off, but i am liking the way were heading here!!!
The logo is really the most important thing, as we are going to print that on all our signs etc...
Thanks a mill and keep them coming were definatly getting there.
also were missing the icons for dodge and jeep,
they dont have to be laid out the way they were in the original pic, that was our old boring one.
Thanks guys!!

Honestly, I prefer the Star. It's hard to create a decent logo if u can understand as theirs not much room to work in and even if you were to create a bigger one and scale it down to tht size it would lose it's Umph.

I thought u mentioned in the first post that u only want 4 specific logos?

sorry thats my mistake, i did want dodge and jeep in there aswell, i cant re-edit the first post, i think, sorry about that my bad lol
What if we raise the width a little with that make it easier to work in?? say to something like 150????
your pretty much on the money with the layout you have, both my wife and i do like it.
thanks for your continued efforts.
Will0wz
Jun 18 2007, 06:05 AM
i'll make the hieght 150 if that is possible and ill include the other brand names.. And thankyou i like the work to im glad you and your wife do. If you like the finished piece are you going to close the thread today? I think that's possible.

Okay, here's my entry for the logo.
If you like the logo, I'll make a banner, too.
And when talking about the banner. Do you have any logos for the car I can use. You know, I'm not sure about the whole copyright thing.

I too am unsure of the copyright situation. Isn't it illegal to use these logos? If your a registered dealer of the brands i believe you should have access to official logos you can use?

chrysler logo needs to be cleaned up a little, as does the graf logo ( I will make a better one in a little bit) but this should give you a good idea of what im going for.
