Looking for a nice image for my music group


I'm in a music group called Maestoso, which a few other people from my year at school.

Recently, we were awarded an award by ROD STEWART and got a trip to london for raising nearly £4000 for cancer research as you can see here.. the feeling and madness were there too.. great night

anyway, i've been asked to make a website by our leader

I'm looking for a really nice large head banner as my photoshop skills are er.. crap.

It would have to have our name (Maestoso) with maybe like.. er.. treble cleffs around it? (we're a classical group) . maybe 775px widthwise and 320px heightwise?

I know it's a challenge.. but there are some amazing artists on here.

I will be thankfull of ALL efforts

btw, if you're going to put any instruments on it.. (not saying you have to)please don't put any string instruments...

they are EVIL and what's more, none of us play any.

Maybe you could have a treble clef in the 't' in Maestoso...

btw, which one are you in that photo xbox360guy? My vote's the guy on the far right, but I'm probably wrong.

yeah, i'm the one on the far right

as for the graphic, it's very nice The colours are great, but it's more of a classical group, no singers with microphones..

I'm using it at the moment, the size is perfect btw. I like the darkness at the top and the bottom, but i just don't know about the singer.. A treble cleff or like.. a line of music would be more suiting maybe.

Also, the font for "Maestoso" is maybe a bit too sharp.. maybe one more easy on the eyes and curved?

Thankyou very much for your effort

Thanks for the comment. I drew the silhouette with the pen tool, and to be honest, I really dont want to draw another one right now

Ive edited it slightly though. The title is more curved and ive put a great big treble clef on the singer

It would be cool if the middle 'S' could be shaped into a clef, instead of just a random picture next to the text.

I wouldn't be good enough to manipulate a font like that yet, it would probably take me a day to work out

i've decided to give the website a kind of.. clean, white and modern look .

obviously very very basic atm. just uploaded stuff 5 mins ago..

i suppose it was help if the edges of the banner was white..

It's great, but i can't actually use it because none of us sing... and we don't use microphones..... See the problem?
I've had a go myself.. but my problem is that i'm rubbish at incorporating images.. like a treble clef for example... ill maybe have a look at a few tutorials.. .. i suppose.. if you want it done right you've got to do it yourself...

thanks for all the help though
