hey Guys,
Here is a baner I put together for the "One of Our tanks is better than 10 of yours" Campaign. Any thoughts or input would be great.
Cheers,
Bryan

Great work Bryan.
The only thing I would suggest is to close up the space (leading) between the two lines of text a little...i.e.
ONEOFOURTANKS IS BETTER
THAN ONE OF YOURS...
and,
Join the
campaign now.
So the sentances read with more connection.
Also on the call to action sentance you may try a drop shadow to make it more clear.
In photoshop on the layers panel there's a little "f" in a circle at the base...click on that and menu of effects comes up.
Hope it helps.
And again thank you for sharing the load...lol.
Cheers
Peter

Perhaps the sights belong to a Firefly, not to a standard Sherman..............

Cheers guys, Great points Peter I kinda felt it was a little off the mark and I think you nailed the problem. Here is the updated Banner.

When I first heard of the name, I thought it was refering to German tanks, but that didn't seem right. So I PM'd GeneralZod to figure it out and he told me. The quote was by a German general in which he said "One of our tanks is better than ten of yours...but you always had eleven." I would think, especially with the bulls-eye on the Tiger, that you may want to find room and add the rest of the quote (in small text). Leave the main title as is including the ... and in the next line add: But you always have eleven. So it should be something like this:
ONE OF OUR TANKS IS BETTER
THAN TEN OF YOURS ...
but you always had eleven
Keep the "Enlist today" as it is, though maybe a little more to the right.
I'll see if I can make a composite of what I'm talking about.

Great Ideas Jeff..Thanks for the input. I took it and went a different direction this time. Its a little easier to read and its a bit more obvious. Opinions?
Cheers,
Bryan
