Request for site logo.
July 10, 2008 on 11:00 am | In Uncategorized |Hey, I know some of my readers are not too shabby when it comes to graphic design. Is anyone out there is willing to design me a banner logo to display at the top of Survival Machine? I’d like it to suit the violet colors of my WordPress theme, and possibly incorporate some science elements (like a DNA double-helix, a galaxy, an organic molecule, an atom, an erlenmeyer flask, et cetera). Let me know if you’d like to take a crack at it.
I’m just getting tired of the plain text title.

I’ll give it a shot this weekend. I did the banners at these sites.

I’m an amateur, but I’d love to give it a go and send you the result.

Oh, I forgot. Do you have a particular set of dimensions in mind, or will you you just resize it to fit your needs?

I’d be very grateful! 920×65 would be a good size. Something to fit in this image would be good (an if a transparent background is easy to do, great!)

This may take longer than I thought. I’ve been searching for images to use and I’ve put together a couple of things and then didn’t like them. Maybe it’s the colors or the small image size.
It might be like writer’s block and inspiration will strike me suddenly.
Sorry I didn’t complete it this weekend. I’m not giving up just yet, but this one is very challenging.

I went with something simple. It matches the dimensions you gave me. Let me know if it would work OK. Thanks.

I created a little sample image of what it might look like.

Hey Hal! That looks great, thank you. I am still messing with my theme to see how to get it up there (I’m still sorta new to WordPress) but I’ll put it up shortly. Thanks so much again for your help!

Hey, Hal, thanks again for your effort. I have to fidget with WordPress to get it to display where I want it, and just haven’t had time yet. I do like it though! Even if you’d had competition, I think your design would’ve won

I’m really glad you liked it. I’ll be honored to see it on your site. Thanks for letting me create for you. Little projects like that keep me from aimlessly wandering the web filling my head with who knows what. You are still writing good posts to by the way. I wish I could focus more on my blog.
