Teecee

Artists here may be more inclined to take your request if you:

a) Find larger images - you are requesting a large banner, not a userbar. Find pictures that can cover the area of the entire banner if need be.

b) Give the artists a little more freedom - not all of the signature/tag artists here have the same style. If they can't emulate what you are asking for, they aren't going to bother giving this topic a second glance.

c) Consider other request topics - most requests aren't completed within the day they are posted. Give it some time to sit. The request section isn't overly active, so there is no need to bump your thread, either.

d) Post around the forums a bit more here - you're fairly new, and artists that may be willing to complete your request may hesitate. It isn't uncommon to see new members leave after a month or so of activity.
