    School Project: SOme Graphics Needed

    Ok. I am willing to pay 200,000 or more credits for a nice version of this. I will try to be as specific as I can. If you have any additional questions or would like me to work with you step by step, I will be on AIM all afternoon (fm54ffr) from 4 to 11 PM EST. I need this FAST so please get back to me ASAP. Here are some of the specifications.

    It is an advertisement supposed to be set back in time and convince people to move west during the early American westward movement. It should be 700 by 900 in size. I want it to have a classic western type look. The border should be sinmilar to the style of font. Here is the exact font I want. I also want an image in the middle. It needs to be something that relates to westward travel, such as this. It can be this exact picture, but doesn't have to be.

    Now, have some of the area below the picture just a textured background and have these exact words on it in a font that is easy to read and matches.

    At the top (Header):

    Westward Travel
    On the Santa Fe Trail

    ^
    Have this centered in the aforementioned font and at the top. DO NOT overlap this with the picture. It should be over the aged paper textured background.

    In the middle (Picture):

    This is where the picture should be. I would prefer no text be overlapping the picture if possible.

    At the bottom (Main Text):

    Grab the children and pack up your wagon because it is time for you to take a trip out west. Just settle on some land and it is all yours for nearly free. The land is beautiful and plentiful and a nice piece of it is just waiting for you.

    ^No details on font. Just make it look good. Preferably something more realistic, but it is up to you. Just have it at the bottom under the picture and have it form a narrower column of text than it does here.

      Well this should be easy to do. I'll get right to it.

      Just so you know, the link for the picture is incorrect.

        Gah, It was correct last night. Lemme get a better one.

        Feel free to change anything on there in order to make it better. Just keep the basics the same. It is just an idea I threw together.

        EDIT: Fixed the link.

          Ok, I don't have a border yet, but is this about what you're looking for?


          lol, I misspelled western in the file name, and I should've put westward instead.

          I also realize I need to crop the image a bit so the width is right.

          edit:
          this is with the width being 700 now


          I have to go now, so I'll have to work on it later.

            It looks absolutely fantastic thus far. Add a relevant border that looks good. And not too thick please. As for the image size, it just needs to be small enough that I could print it on a piece of printer paper.

            And spelling error would be appreciated if fixed.

            EDIT: Edited version is fantastic.

            I am open to any other versions that someone may want to put forth.
            If not, Dean this one is great.
            Either way everyone with an honest attempt gets paid.

                  Yep, that's a quick fix.

                  Oh and don't give me credits for this, it's a free gift back to you.

                    Aw, Dean. You didn't have to do that.
                    But thanks.

                    I guess this is all done.
                    Thanks Bud.

                            Thanks. I didn't expect any other graphic artists to say that it was good.
