Banner contest

There's this really cool blog called metrodad.com that I stumbled upon one day. You might be wondering why the heck I'm reading a blog called MetroDad since I don't have any kids (and I'm not a guy). Upon first glance you would think this site is geared toward a parent raising his kid. It pretty much is. Specifically a father raising a cute rambunctious daughter. Nevertheless, in general, it's a site that's entertaining and geared towards anyone who has a sense of humour, sans kids.

So, last week he had a contest for his readers to send him an updated banner for his blog. Winner would receive: (1) a brand-new Apple Shuffle, (2) a full ensemble of work-out/casual athletic clothing, and (3) a $50 American Express gift certificate.

I built this up just to say I was NOT one of the finalists BUT I still wanted to show off my banner, so here it is.

I definitely like the 5 that he chose for the finalists. You can find those on his site. It's kind of hard to choose the one I like best. I think I like 1, 2, and 4 the best. If I were forced to choose right now, I guess I'd go with 4.
