    I'd like to request some help with my site logo. The current one is the pits, it was the best I could come up with using Cool Text: Logo and Graphics Generator but I really need a professional one.

    I am open to both a left-justified type image, as well as a entire fixed-width image. Both have advantages. If it is fixed width, I will need some help with the background CSS currently on my site and a little help setting to fixed width. I'm new with vb still.

    Type of Graphic: Site logo
    Colors: Most of the site is blue, use your professional judgment
    Text Preference: Uhm... ?
    Specific Images to be included: Definitely want a theme to do with trading, as in day trading, stock trading, stock market, etc.
    Size (in pixels): If left-justified, say around 500-600px wide by 60-90px high, if fixed width then probably 960px wide?
    Payment/Offer in return (if applicable): I can PayPal a small sum, please give me a firm quote ahead of time so we can agree.
    Any other details or specifications

    I would like to see two or three different styles so I can choose the one I like the best, or maybe keep them and rotate them on occasion.

    The site is at:
    Big Mike Trading Forum

    D: I think the dropdown shadow is a little over done, my opinion anyways.

    I'll give this a shot newaiz...

    Hi guys, I appreciate your work!

    I was thinking of something that really had a clear message of Stock Market or Trading. To get us on the same page, here are some images. Ignore the ones with people, but the ones of charts and tickers and more conceptual ideas, those are the ones I am drawn to.

    Hi plazzman, I like the idea of this but am finding it a little hard to read. I'm always amazed at how creative people work and think, because I am so decidedly "uncreative". Worse yet, I am a perfectionist!

    Maybe you could make your logo look either like a stock market ticker (the old-fashioned Times Square type) or a stock market graph? (Ending with the line going up, of course!)
