OK thank you for the many great entries for this project!

We got off to the wrong start with this whole thing -- and info was thrown in which diverted the required theme.

So! Shane has come up with a great basis
Edited:
I replaced my original demo version with one that includes the changes Pete requested. This is still very much  an open project.


...

So what we need is just to unblur the aircraft, balance the image and add logo (top left I think) and 2 entry links -- 'Express Members' and 'Main Menu' . Could be buttons or small aviation looking panel.

Link to Shane's PSP file (editable) -- PSP9 file, for Photoshop version, see post below.

So is the page going to be a variation of this image? Or are we still free to come up with some of our own? I have been slowly but surely working on a collage type page in which there are several pictures with the edges bent up, sort of like a scrapbook. Just want to know before I get real far into it and find it was all for nothing.
 
My specs... A hard drive, motherboard, graphics card, some memory, a keyboard, mouse, and monitor - in other words, nothing special.

What you see in that pic is pretty much what Pete is looking for, just with the necessary adjustments he mentioned. 

If you can put better looking cut-outs on it, with the other stuff he's after, by all means do it  Smiley.
I got some of these from the usual place, and the others were from screenshots I took. Wink

The background pic is probably a firm choice. And the planes should all appear to be flying out of the Simviation logo in the center.

Here is a link to the untouched background pic:

The project is not closed so always interested to see other ideas but Shane's is the closest thing to what I had in mind ... says what the site is about in a dramatic and professional way ....

The scrapbook idea sound interesting .... Smiley

Thanks

Ok, I will press on with my idea then. Maybe make a rough draft and see how it goes. I have a clear image of what I want it to look like in my head... just need to work and arrange it in that manner. No easy task.

May also play with Shanes image... tho I use Photoshop so I cant use his actual image.  Sad
