Red face

(Admin code added by 2Square - PK891650N)


Hello, I have started a website for skateboarders at www.skaterscafe.com, have a look and see the design I'm working with. The main colors of the site are black/grey/white but I want a small element of color.

I want a red neon sign listed like this: WWW.SKATERSCAFE.COM. I want the word "cafe" to flicker on and off at random times like a neon sign with a short.

Also, we need a banner with the same function, if possible I would like to have both done.

Here is our logo we want on the banner:

Hello,

A few questions:

What size do you want the neon sign? 468x60? banner size? Red background with colored font? Choice of color for font? Or black bg with red neon font? logo or not on the sign?

Also do you want the banner to use the whole logo you provided? or just the skater on the cup pic?

Thanks,

--Brian

Sorry I didn't make it clearer... :blink:

We are palnning on having the backgrounf wither a brick was or a fence so the words "SkatersCafe.com" should be made to work on that type background. I was able to make what I wanted but I could not get the work cafe to blink so.....I need help.

Here is what I had in mind, again with the word "cafe" flickering as if to have a short:

Here is a quickie on the sign

--Brian

edit* if you have the psd of the above posted I can tweek it for you. To add more of a shorted out sign effect. You can have an admin add the file for you.

Right direction with this one?

Thanks for the replys so far. The sign I attached above I can make it flash, I need it to "flicker"...you know like it has a short....on and off at different intervals.

The site is still under work but will be in black white and grey. It will be sorta modeld like www.boneswheels.com.

This may give you an idea of what Ray likes. This was made by a friend of my site. They told me that "now open" looked dull and if they made it look like the "O" was flickering and goes out every 4th frame (I beleieve) that it gives it that neon look.

ChristianSanfiel, that is about exactly what I'm wanting.

cursal, I like the way the Cafe is blinking but the color is too dark.

I did my sign in MS PhotoDraw, I dont' know if any of you can use it to do this with. I still like that font the best, I'll try to attach it.

Well I can't get a .mix file to attach.

Maybe you can save it in another format. If it's the .mix file that you must attach then you can put it in a .zip file and then upload.
