Excellent start, but I'd agree that we probably want to use some local cars.

FIRST.....Blue.....This is if fantastic. The effort is really appreciated.

Instead of 3 scenes as background, can we add a few more transitions? mountains, lighthouse, Fort McHenry, chesepeake bay bridge (perhaps). That we get the major cities and the major representative sights. I'm not suggesting ALL of these just more representative pics in the back.

I'll be quiet now.....

Hey, that's pretty cool! I like that one. It would look good on the website. Now here's another idea...

Should we have one for our group events? I.e. Fall Colors, Dragonball, other events like the one on 12/4 at Arundal Mills (yeah I know, too late for that event). Just a thought.

You'll want to use Adobe Illustrator to resize it, as it's resolution and clarity is better than Photoshop because it's vector based. Photoshop is raster based and when you try to blow it up, you lose resolution. Resizing it in Illustrator keeps the resoultion & clarity.

while somewhat on the right track .... this information is way way way way wrong. Illustrator is a vector based program.. but.. just because you take a 72 dpi badge from the internet and put it in illustrator that doesn't automatically make the picture a vector based image that can be resized to an unlimited #. You can work in photoshop and keep a great clarity if you know what your doing and start out with the correct file sizes and etc. Illustrator is great for text manipulation but not for photography.

Any web banner is going to be made in Photoshop/Imageready or specific web based program such as Fireworks or Flash.
