Name of the contest: Header
Deadline: 26/11/05
Prize/Delivery method: $80 paid through paypal

Contest brief: This is for experienced graphic artists only (its not a simple text + style header but art) I require a new header for a new forum i am starting called elfboard, i need the header to be in the same style as http://www.northpole.com/ , see the main image their and the houses etc.

I have the idea of having santa standing at the left of the image with a elf next to him and maybe santa has his arm on the elfs sholder (remember the elf will be smaller but not too small), Then having a house which look like the houses on http://www.northpole.com/ behind him which will be quite big saying maybe santas house. Then the style must carry on over the whole image and not look flat but so it looks like its a real place so the idea i have is on the right have a big building called toy workshop and then maybe next to it further in distance a few big trees with a sign on each saying shoe makers(make sure the signs look like they have been like hamered on like a old plank)

Then the middle just be creative , i dont mind whats there. I would love there to be maybe santas slay next to his house and maybe raindeers somewhere (sorry for spelling) . Be creative and i look forward to seeing them.

Also must have elfboard written somewhere with a good style and christmas feel (maybe snow over some of it etc)
