Greetings.

I am a volunteer fund raiser on the Board of the Drupal Association. We are working on better integration between the main Drupal.org website and the association.drupal.org website. One of the obvious things we are working on first is a 'Spotlight' image for the Drupal association - these are the graphics that show up in the rounded box on the upper right of drupal.org; 'Drupal Planet' 'Security Announcements' etc.

I volunteered to create the spotlight image for the Drupal Association, but unfortunately have very limited design skills. Here is what I've got so far:


Source PSD: http://zacker.org/files/association_spotlight_3.psd

I was wondering if there was any designers out there who would be willing to pitch in an hour or two of time to help come up with something more compelling. Any takers?

Cool. glad you like

The link to the .tif contains all photoshop layers (created in photoshop 7). I noticed the missing rounded corners too, added those. Both files updated. Feel free to contact me if you want changes to the text, too. The other wording I played with was:
"support dupal, DONATE! (you know you want to)"

I don't think I like the

I don't think I like the phrase "GIVE MONEY". It seems a little...I dunno. Beggingish.

I do like the words DONATE and SUPPORT and HELP. Which are all in there, and are all better words than GIVE.

yep, Donate it is.

Yeah. I kinda like the blunt in-your-face-ness of "give money", but it's not very polite and we certainly don't want to scare off potential donors, so the updated "DONATE" version is here:
