After having my logo designed by Chelle my site is nearly ready for launch. SelectGreetings.co.uk (http://www.selectgreetings.co.uk)

I need to promote it with a banner - attention grabbing yet professional

468x60 pixels not bigger than 25kb

My theory is that not many people are on the net looking for cards on the net so I want to grab them with banners on gift, presents and shopping sites.

Text could include

100s of Quality Handmade Cards (the most important text)
Made by artists across the UK
Buy online today
Fast Delivery
Also Wedding Invitations

Closing date is 3rd May!

Original logo is attached.

Do you already have site selected to place your banner? 25k seems pretty big.
Also, any photos or links to the products you carry?

25kb is the max really. The smaller the better.

You could look at my developing site at

Select greetings - under development! (http://www.selectgreetings.co.uk/catalog/default.php)

Here is one I have worked on today - sorry I am late. :(

I am going to see if I can come up with another also.

File size around 23k

I quite like both of these entries. ElKootcho could I see it with a sans serif font such as verdana?

Demex - I like it but would like to see it more attention grabbing perhaps with some of the headline text you used filling the banner sometimes.

Hope this makes sense.

Here it is with Verdana Bold (The regular looked too weak IMO) and I changed the text color to the purple from your logo.

Here is design no: 2

I have tried to include your comments on making the text bigger and attention grabbing.
