Zap, even though i stated in the PM that id rather wait till you were happy before posting this publicly, I think it's only fair for everyone else that they see my entry, might help them in improving theirs, might even ward off potential competitors in future contests? win - win for me.
As i said before in the PM, it's a digital illustration, scaled down of course, I can hook you up with different bg's. I could simply vectorize it but if you're in a hurry for this project to be completed then I'll just mention i vanish sometimes due to deadlines ad stuff, just don't want to end up keeping you hanging and all.
