    My email address is garyjaybrooks ([a]) gmail.com but please dont send me details yet to my email. I want to wait until the end of the contest to keep everything organized. You still might win a couple more banners or I might offer you money for banner I did not choose. In this form I can have each designer send me a invoice and files and I will pay you for your services and work.

    Thank you so much !

    Thank you Site point for this wondeful site. You have done a wonderful job with the new interface and the star system is cool.

    NOTE: if you red my above notes I still did not get a good "Make Your Wife" happy banner yet :-) Still looking foward to the rest of the contest. Thanks everyone for the awesome work.

    I want to remind everyone that I like the banners to all be animated. If your have seen the MySpace banners then you understand what Im looking for.

    Also if you see a banner with 5 stars that means Im buying the banner.

    >>>>>> Download Image for contest <<<<<<<<<<<< These should make development allot easier http://www.capitalplus.com/contest_pictures.zip

    To people looking at this contest I took the time to purchase some pictures you can use in the banners. Try to mix and match with my words I gave you.

    Within the zip is a pretty ladies upper area with money placed in the center, please try to make me a "professional" tasteful but sexy version of this banner.

    Words for this image.

    I just want to let people coming here for contest that even if they cutt off the competition I will pay for those banners that I like and I will still pay the $100.00 best banner prize.

    I believe this is a fair exchange for a contest. This "type" of auction could increase SitePoints banner contest traffic. I see the current method earns them very little business in the area.

    No, you are not within the guidelines.

    The minimum prize for a banner is at *least* $100 EACH. Yes, that number is real, and in the real-world, it's low. If you contact any established boutique design agency, you will find that the price is a bargain. That's why you see contests that pay $500, $1000, and more for a single graphic.

    Here are our guidelines and prize minimums:

    The contest ask for the tagline. You don't need to use "We Structure Success" in the banners. I will see what I can do to change the contest details. I can see where that would be confusing.

    Also you do not "need" to use the logo or the URL. I will see if I can change this in the contest details too. If the banners good and does not have the logo and still makes the user want to click then we are fighting a winning battle.

    Please just look at the information I provided and make something that would make you click.

    Capitalplus.com is a factoring business and we buy invoices. This industry is very unique and I need the customer looking for money to notice our product. Since "Factoring" is not a recognized term I hope to use these banners to market our services to new customers that might not understand the selling of an invoice.

    --a little about our company --
    Our business is "buying invoices" and we can give you money NOW for them, rather then you waiting to be paid 30,60,90 days. Times get hard for companies that need money to pay payroll or other business expenses and sometimes waiting for a invoice to be paid is not an option. They either need to seek a bank loan, borrow the money another way, or hopefully use our Invoice Factoring services.

    Here is the URL structure if you plan to use in banner - but I dont think the URL is needed as part of the design.

    URL: http://www.capitalplus.com - www.capitalplus.com -- Capitalplus.com

    Just to clarify, you don't want your company name or logo on the banners from the official site you posted as a reference in the brief, just the words (We Structure Success "tm")?

    This is a bit confusing to me as to why the company name is different on the site you posted Vs. The name you posted here for the contest & I wouldn't want to waist my time doing flash with your company logo, if no visual connection to it is wanted on the banners in the first place.

    I suppose the simplified question would be... shall i use your Official company name & logo as Per the URL you posted & ad the (We Structure Success "tm") as a tag line? or just use the (We Structure Success "tm") & stay away from the official company relations?

    In addition, I will also need to know if the URL you posted in the brief will be the one you want embeded into the flash banners, or if you have another URL in mind. If so, what is it?
