Logo & Signature (1,000 FP Cash)

[MrJohn]

Type of Graphic: Logo and advertising signature for my new project.
Size in pixels: The logo should be 200x50 pixels, and the advertising signature should be 468x60 pixels.
Type of payment: $1,000 FP Cash to the winner :cheer:
Link to forum or screenshot: I need them both to match the colors and theme found at http://www.linkcove.com , as I will be using the same template they are.
Colour scheme: See the link above to get the color scheme from the theme.
Text / Subtext on image: The logo just needs to say Forum Chase as the text, and Find An Online Community To Join! as the subtext, and the advertising signature needs to say Forum Chase, and then Free Forum Directory as the subtext.
Link to images (if applicable): Use whatever you want, as long as you are not breaching copyright by using someone's icons or images in your work that is not licensed to do so. I suggest finding images that are released under the Creative Commons license that allow for images to be used in other works with no link back to the original creator. If you use another image in your image, please make sure to include a link to where you got the image, so that I know you are not breaching someone's image.
Notes?: Please and thank you. Looking to get this done as soon as possible. Hoping to pick a winner within the next 3-4 days. Also, if the advertising signature and the logo could both match each other, that would be great. I would make the logo first if I were you guys, and then incorporate it into the advertising signature after.

Here are my tries:

Two Tones of Color @ Top Text w/o BG


Two Tones of Color @ Top Text w/ BG


One Tone of Color @ Top Text w/o BG


One Tone of Color @ Top Text w/ BG


If you like this concept, I'll make your signatures =)
I can also make any changes necessary if you like them.

Kik wins

 

[MrJohn]

Those are some great images. Thanks for the attempts. Right now I am heavily leaning towards Kik's images. But, for now I will leave this competition up for a couple more days, just so everyone that wants to try can. But, you better bring your A game if you want to beat Kik's images. 🙂

Quick question, do you want the banner to be transparent?

 

[MrJohn]

Yes, it would be best if the logo was transparent. Unless you can match the background from the theme on the link that I gave. The advertising signature obviously doesn't need to be transparent.

Here's my attempt...
On the logo/banner, the background will be removed if you chose it, it's just there so you can see what it would look like.

Not the best, but here's my try.

I think Kik's banner is amazing, as well as the signature.


Or this one?


I will remove the url if you want..

 

[MrJohn]

I am going to give the $1,000 FP cash to Kik. Those are some amazing images, just what I had in mind. If you can PM me the images and the .psd if you have it, that would be perfect. Sending the cash now. Thanks to all who participated.

Well done Kik 🙂
