Brief Summary

Material within the workbook, "Become an Agent Magnet," teaches loan officers how to market their services to real estate agents. I need the cover (8.5 x 11 in) upgraded to be more professional.

    Kadong, jeff is right. You can get a nice hi-res photo for use in these contests for $2 at istock.

    In response to the previous question...

    I understand photos can cost hundreds of dollars, however, I recommend using istockphoto.com. It's a great resource and pennies on the dollar compared to other photo sites.

    hello,

    im only wondering... you want photo or images of a person. well one source of a good photo/image that your looking for are from stock photos websites and to get a high quality photo we/you desire for the design has to be payed. so hows that gonna be? i mean a few good photos would cost about 100$ or more.

    im just wondering so it could be cleared. thanks =)

    The contest is not abandoned. I'll try to improve how quick I reply to each designer. I have been sharing my contest with other people to get their feedback and sometimes that involves some extra time.

    I appreciate everyone's design postings and find this process extremely helpful. Viewing different ideas is helping me to pinpoint what I would like for my cover.

    Color palettes and font selection has been excellent with each designer, and many designs involve an image that connects with "standing out from the crowd." I'd like to see designs that continue the theme, but use stock photo's of people, instead of clip art. Since my information is about 1 person (a loan officer) trying to convince another person (a real estate agent) to partner together, I would imagine "real faces" will help make that connection.

    Again, thanks for you designs and I look forward to the final week of the contest.
