502596 Header Image and Logo Design For Web Site Template

I need a professional looking and nicely designed logo as well as a header image (which uses that logo) to fit nicely in the top header section of my link directory. The site URL is [login to view URL] and the logo and header should match the current site colors and the header should be able to stretch across the top and blend in perfectly with the template. The title should be "Total Sports Index" (not "The" Sports index like the current header has) I can setup FTP account access so you can upload the header/logo and make sure it fits into the site perfectly. The site is using a directory script. So I will need someone who can edit template to fit the new header in. The site is a Sports Betting Directory so I want the logo/header to use symbols and visuals (like money, American football, or basketball, or baseball players, or balls or anything else that gives a great visual of what the site is all about). I want the logo/header to be professional looking (but NOT boring) and I want it to POP off the page and be very appealing. Don't be afraid to be creative and try to hit a home run. There is great potential acquire future work doing more headers/logos in the future if you can do a good job. I look for a good value in the orginal bid, but I always provide a big bonus for exceeding expectations. I ask that all bidders post a little sample (which can include a watermark) and show me what you can do. Header Title and Glogan: (title) Total Sports Index (slogan) Your Complete Sports Betting Article & Site Directory I also need a logo in tiff and jpg format for use when logo is needed. favicon - 16x16 ico file that I can use for the sites favicon.
