Challenge Summary

This contest is to design two banners for a TopCoder web page aimed at potential customers. The goal is to give the visitor two bold choices and entice them to navigate to either learn more and about TopCoder Enterprise solutions or learn more about TopCoder Direct. "Enterprise Solutions" is directed at high-level executives at major companies seeking to transform how software gets built in their organization. "TopCoder Direct" is directed at organizations or individuals who want to use our tools to run their own competitions. These are the two main paths we would like users to take when visiting this page, so these banners should be attractive and enticing.
A template for the banners is provided, your submission should be one image with both banners in the space provided. For TopCoder Direct, we have a logo (attached), and so that will likely be the primary image for that banner. For "Enterprise Solutions" you will need to create an image to go with the text. The image should convey the message that TopCoder is a global community that works with some of the world's largest companies, and instill confidence in the user that TopCoder is a solution for their company. The banners should complement the overall look of the page both with imagry and color. Take a look at www.topcoder.com - this page uses many of the same elements and colors. Feel free to use the color red, but it should not be the overwhelming primary color. Please note that the background color outside of the two-banner aread is #F9FAF4. If you recreate the template, the background should either be this color or transparent. LEFT BANNER REQUIREMENTS: 1. Text: Enterprise Solutions 2. Text: Let's talk about how TopCoder can work for you. RIGHT BANNER REQUIREMENTS: 1. Please use the TopCoder Direct Logo (attached) 2. Text: Take Control 3. Arrow or Button indicating the banner is clickable
