Guys - we could use help with two specific areas

1. Graphic design - we need someone to make some SPEEDB.A.G. 2010 banners for the website, graphics, etc. Does anyone have artistic talent they'd like to contribute?

2. Is there anyone "on the ground" in Las Vegas? We could use some up close, in person recon for some of these possible event locations.

If you think you can help , PM me

Goju, that's some good graphic design! Nice job!
How bout a Wizard with his hands fixed around a speed bag looking as if he is casting a spell. This would be on the right, or on top.
And then on the left or bottom would be some cool, capitalized font, (angled frontward to give the "speed" impression, with a bit of speed/air lines behind it), saying

We can definitely include some detail , however, I do need some versions that fit in a regular banner sized slot, such as 550x60 JPG or PNG, which fits in the banner area at the top of the web site. More elaborate designs and sizes such as those of your samples I can definitely use in other places on the web site as well.

Thanks for taking a stab at this and I appreciate your assistance.

That would be awesome, and would save me having to make a (potentially) expensive trip out there. I think we're going to have a "short list" of locations and will want to get some recent, NON- hotel provided photos of the general location and conference room. Just to get an idea of the quality, privateness, etc. it will help planning.

I'll be in touch. I understand your not in Vegas so no problem if you can't do it.

thats a very nice idea spin, ill see if i can find some images to play around with.

Thanks Goju!

well ive started work on the banner guys, but with the size its proving harder than i thought, but im still on it. Just cant seem to merge too many images on such a small canvas.

Goju,
Just make something in whatever size you can, I can use it in other places.

A banner in 550x60 would be nice, but I'll take whatever I can get !!!

Thanks!

Technically, speedbagforum.com OR speedbagforums.com both work, as I registered both domain names, but you should use speedbagforum.com (not plural) for best results.
