I need a banner for www.allstarhosting.com. 300DNF to the best design

I think you need a new logo too...

If you are targeting Americans, I'd go with a red-white-blue/stars & stripes motif.... If you are targeting international audience, then I'd go with a sports-oriented (maybe soccer) motif with a few stars in design.

I think your current design is a million times better than what 300 DNF would ever get you, consider that is about $3

Hey, it's free www.tldn.com/ash.html

For $30 I can make you a new logo and matching banner.

I disagree with with this red/white and blue concept..thats very "odd" to think that that just because he may be targeting americans or using a .US...

Do you see are German sites .DE sites with a blac/red/yellow flag themes?

Or Japanenese sites with a big red dot flag ?

Think about how narroww that line of thought is...

If I remember correctly, quite a few "all-star" teams are dressed in red-white-blue. With the existing patriotic mood in U.S., it has a natural subconscious appeal too. Narrow? Well, yes--intentionally so. Like I said, use it to TARGET the U.S. market only. "All-star" is more of an American phrase than anything.

If I were designing GermanHosting.com or JapanHosting.com, I'd use national colors there too, and maybe flag inspired design.

Thank you all for your opinions. This is a temporary design and it will change in a month or two once I get some of my customers to transfer to my hosting. As of now, tippy is the winner. I will give one more day for somone to add a new banner for me to look at
