Here's another.

A bit weak on the graphics side, but you get the idea (it's a roadside billboard)

AroundTheWorld -

Thanks! I would love to help out with your project, PM me if you need any help with design/web stuff.

If I may offer some advice, coming from a marketing/branding background;

You really need to iron out a stronger branding and marketing feel for your project before you worry about doing the advertising and website. I always try to start a project with a very very strong idea of the brand. What does it represent, what is my audience, what is my goal and how do I convey all of that and more in a small logo.

All the thought you put into the brand and everything involved in it - color scheme, fonts, logo, tagline - forms a solid foundation for you to build off of. It would be hard to build it backwards as it leaves people confused and unsure of what you really mean.

In short, I suggest NAILING down a SOLID brand. Get a great logo, nice color scheme (I suggest not using green) and figure out what it all means, then begin advertising.


Just my 2cents...and those are the only 2cents I have!!

Justin, thanks a lot.
You have made me think about branding (we are still working on it, and I am very glad that the community here has been great in providing feedback and ideas). We are gonna have to find time to do this plus the many other things needed to keep this running.
Thanks again.

I don't like any shade of green for this particular project... In my opinion, color application will be important to the publics perception of this brand.

But, there might be a side to the market I haven't yet explored.... ATW and ANDVIV, i got your pm, i will return it soon.
