Contest for hotel/casino logo, $90

Logo for hotel and casino web site
Deadline: 3/12/2007
Prize & Delivery method: $90 paid through paypal

Contest brief:

I require a logo for use marketting my web site located at http://www.hotelandcasinoreview.com/forum. This particular logo may be used for a variety of purposes such as for printing on t-shirts and other promotional items.

The actual logo itself must be in the visual form of a poker chip, thus it must be round and all elements of the design must be a part of the overall poker chip logo. Poker chips come in a wide variety of designs, and to get an overall feel (and perhaps inspiration) for the many varieties and possibilities, please take a look at the following sites:

http://www.mrchipper.com/VegasNZthumbs.htm
http://www.geocities.com/robtreno@sb.../Approval.html

I would like to have the following image included in the design and have made it available here in .png format:

And, if you'd like to check out the current logo which will also continue to be used for this site:

The logo should contain the text "hotelandcasinoreview.com" and "Talk About Your Stays and Plays" (without quotes) and be otherwise decorated or created as you see fit, based on the feel you've gotten for the variety of designs a poker chip can have.

The logo chosen is definitely going to be printed on white t-shirts and again will likely be used for other purposes involving white backgrounds, so please keep this in mind as you go. I'd like this in .psd, .png and vector format so that the image may be resized and used as needed on a variety of mediums.

Colors: Matching the logo currently being used
