There's a great deal of graphical talent amongst the OcUK forum members who have contributed the World Famous OcUK Pud and Christmas smilies

We now need 2 new Christmas graphics for our main site. If you fancy a crack at it here are the specs.

1 - Index Page Graphic - max dimensions 140px x 140px, jpg or gif. Should including wording "CHRISTMAS GIFTS".

2 - Christmas Specials page Graphic - 500px x 130px, jpg or gif. Should include wording "CHRISTMAS SPECIALS & GIFTS".

Both graphics should have a similar style. Background will be white. Please post your entries here.

Deadline for submissions is 8.30am Friday 23rd November.

Winner gets £50 (inc VAT) of free hardware

It's a new location within our existing site, and there is a common colour scheme throughout.
