Design Request

[Datech]

I was wondering if anyone here would like to come up with a Header design, and maybe even sig, for my Passion computer worklog.

The worklog is here: http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/forum/showthread.php?t=16731

I have absolutely no design requirements on it, and the main thing I'm looking for is the lettering style of the word 'Passon' and something cool in the background. My idea is that I will take your header and have the word and other design elements etched into a piece of plastic. This piece of plexiglass will go on the front of her computer, and it'll have red lights making it glow from the inside.

Use all creative license you want, all I request is the word 'Passion' and some significant element in the background, or even foreground, I don't care. Since the design for the case is red and hearts, i figure you'll probably start there.

Thanks in advance to everyone who steps up!

When I get home I will take a crack at it! (at work right now, this compy only has MS paint yuck!)

EDIT: I got sucked into playing Doom 3 and totally spaced working on this. sorry man, I will soon!

Wow, the design for the front panel is awesome XcOM! I do believe I will be using that for the bigger panel in the 5.5" bays. If anyone else was in the middle of a design, or if you wanna keep going X, feel free to keep submitting as there will be another panel covering two floppy drive slots. This design doesn't have to have the word Passion in it since the bigger panel will, so do whatever you want.

XcOM, I'm liking both designs a lot, but would you be able to make a few changes for the header? I really like the fireworks effect in the front panel, but it will be hard to etch the same effect into plexiglass. So for the header, would you be able to take the panel design and crop it so only the top part of the heart and the fireworks are showing, and then move the word up to the center? Thanks a ton for the quick design!

on it now

That's perfect, thanks! If you get any other design urges feel free to change it and let me know. I just wanted someone else's input on this as I'm all out of design ideas, lol

i can do the heart without the fireworks, or make them larger and less of them so it would be easier to etch.

I can also make the image 1:1 scale for you so all you need do it print and etch.

5" 1/2 bay cover 1:1 scale:

and an solid version without any glow for etching:

I would like to explain, the glow would be light etching allowing the light to change brightness, and the solid parts would be heavy etching, and the lines would be deep groves, or you could colour the lines with paint.

The second image is a solid image to make etching easier should you use that.
