The paintball field I work at just bought some of these for rentals, http://www.smartparts.com/#/sp-1/home/, and we want to put a banner on our site to announce it. The marker is the Smart Parts SP1. The site it will go on is www.dfwpro.com, so make it match our feel. The banner will be placed above the orange text on the home page, so I think the space is 600 wide. The draw of the marker is that it is a full-auto rental marker. The text should read:

DFWPro goes full auto.
Smart Parts SP1 rentals now available.*

Then in fine print:
*Quantities limited, reserve yours today, no discounts apply.

on it 8)

wait...600 wide......what about height?

Will that background img at the top...the beige one with the camo trim, will that be removed?? Or would you like me to take that and add accordingly?

I just print screend the site and cut out that beige bg pic at the top and that 760pixels. The actual bg img itself is 825.

When you copy a cutout fromt he right edge of the nav menu on the left, to the far right edge of that top bg img, its *640.

So what ya want?

I'll just make a couple and see where it goes from there. The first one is lookin' halfway decent already :9

Don't use the beige one, that is some crap that came with the site builder they are using.

This banner will go between the following text blocks:

DFW PRO PAINTBALL PARK

and

October, November, and December dates posted, register now. Our next public play day is SATURDAY, October 10th, 2009.

However wide it needs to be, and whatever height to make it not look crammed in there, but not taking over the entire site.

Here, tell me if you like this......should I shrink this or that....how would you want to see this concept modified.

I'm gonna go do the family ting today so I'll be back later for any tweaking.

Remember the img below is photoshopped....you can space the banner apart from the text accordingly with html.

I like, can you link me just the image itself?

**CivilWars** · 10-01-09, 01:35 PM

I will show the owners, and let you know what feedback they have.

I am working with big to try to schedule a TTP meetup there later this year, or early next.

pm'd with this:

took the text off the left and erased the corners and edges on the img....looked kinda funny with the hard straight edges on top of that black backing.
