Custom Style Request

Reason for Request: I need an Official Style of my own. And it has to be something no one else has. I want it to say pretty, but not too girly or weddingdy...something grown up and mature. I like Peggy's work and I'm glad she's making girly skins. :bunny:

Colors: Well...for the first color I'd like #700B1C or something lighter. If you can get a color as close and lighter that would be fine. The 2nd color can be a beige or a neutral that matches the 1st color. Or it can be a mixture of up to three colors. Nothing bright or white.

Details: I love the "Impressions" style a lot so I want something similar to it, but different to fit the subject of my board. I don't want a textured background, everything should be smooth.

Buttons: I'd like the buttons custom as well. Maybe buttons that say "B2W" with cute little wingding (I don't know).

Logo: I need a custom logo and that will become my official logo. I want to get bumper stickers made and t-shirts eventually. I don't know if I need to go to someone else for this but I want it to fit into the style perfectly, colors and all. I like silhouettes.

Notes: If you need any other details...let me know!

Oh and it needs to be for 3.6. I am definitely going to upgrade.

Tanya could you please post the url to that other board that had the logo you showed me? I'd like for Chris to see that so that he can get an idea of the kind of design we might be going after.
thanks!

Now.... It may very well take me about a week, if not a day or two longer, to do your skin for you. I'm off work Wed and thurs but I have my 6 yr old son home with me as well. He has a disorder called Asperger syndrome and requires alot of attention. This is why I'm up doing stuff in the middle of the night ;)
Then I work Friday Sat Sunday and Monday. SO, if you can be generous as to the amount of time I have to do this, I promise, you won't be disappointed ;)
As far as price... we'll talk about that in private ;)

I am in no rush, seriously. I'm glad you're willing to do this for me. I haven't even upgraded yet so we're good. The site we were looking at was http://www.dallasareamoms.com.

So are you wanting something like the icon on that page where it looks like a mother holding her child? If so I can run with that and come up with a logo for you. I will work on it in between my other 4 logo jobs I have going on right now, but I will get something together for you.

No not like that one Chris. But in the same style as that icon. Something wedding-ish. She's going to use it on pamphlets, stationery, etc. It will be bride2wive's trademark so-to-speak.

I'll take ticket #5.

Tanya this is an awfully dark color to base your style off of, don't you think? Take a peek in the style chooser for B2W

My official style is mostly that color. You can experiment if you like and go with what you think looks good and let me see it. Is it OK for us to go back and forth until we get it right?

Of course it is! We can make as many changes as you'd like.

Ok I can deal with the dark color for the background, OR, we can use the gold color for the background and use this maroon color for the table borders, gradient table headers, category strips, buttons, forum icons, etc.

Thoughts?

No, make the background light. They don't like dark backgrounds. Gold sounds good.
