So, it seems like a good time to take some time to do some altering to a theme close to my heart, Tolkien’s ‘Lord of the Rings’.

Hey,

So as is absolutely clear, I haven’t got a header for my site.  As there are so many people who are better at this stuff than I am, I thought that rather than spend a day with pain, suffering and photoshop, I’d pay someone the princely sum of £10 in cash (paypal or in person if you’re local) or vouchers (amazon etc.) to do so for me.  As such, a competition is born.  I will be selecting the best entry next Wednesday, and if that is you, then you will be able to treat yourself to an early Christmas pressie (worth approximately £10).  Wonderful!  Stick to the guidelines below, and email it to me by Wednesday at 12 noon, and all will be fine and dandy.

  1. It should fit the width/depth of the space on the website, and high  resolution.
  2. It can include any images from this site, of me or my work or from my CMON profile (search images from Cybersquig).  Then you’ll truly see how bad my photoshop ability is lol!
  3. It should be clear from the header what I’m selling (my writing, sculpting and painting services)
  4. It should be bold (that is, it should stand out), and it should be in keeping with the theme of the site.  Have a look around it…It’s still under construction, but you should get the picture.
  5. It should have my name in it somewhere
  6. It should be emailed to me (jamesgriffin@stroudcol.ac.uk) by Wednesday at 12 noon
  7. All entries become my intellectual property when they are submitted
  8. Also, let me know how you want your winnings!

It’s worth noting that I’ll be looking to offer a larger amount of money in the coming months to edit photographs for a book I’ve written, so keep an eye out for that, I’ll be commissioning someone £150 for that, possibly someone that has impressed me in this competition, so if that’s something that would interest you, then drop me an email through the site.

Thanks for looking,

James
