Hello -
I am making a browser based racing game. It's close to completion but my artistic skills are awful, so I need someone to do a few things to make it look better.

The basic idea behind the game is that I race my car on a course, and then challenge you to try to beat my time.

First, I need a 'Now Racing' Screen. The dimensions are 760x480. This screen displays before a person does a race and tries to beat a challenger's time. It must display:
1. The challenger's name, the name of their car and the time it took them to complete the race
2. The accepting player's name and car
3. A button that says "race"

Second, I need a container for a tall, narrow chat window. dimensions are 200x550

Right now you can see the current implementation of both of these game items here:

For now I'll be keeping the template that you see see (the header that says Race Kings and the menu that says garage, racing etc.)

The 'feel' that I'm shooting for is captured by the game Need for Speed Underground - if you do a google image search you'll see what i'm talking about. Basically, an edgy, street racing kind of look.

I'm looking for a turnaround time of 5 days from the start. Please include whether you will accept paypal as a form of payment ... this is not a requirement but it is certainly a huge plus. I'm thinking roughly $125, but if someone comes through with a portfolio that knocks my socks off that number could go up. I will pay half up front if you accept paypal.

The deliverable should be a photoshop .psd that has the layers broken out appropriately. I'll also need access to any fonts used to create dynamic text.

Forgot to mention - somewhere on the 'now racing' screen i'd like to display 81x81 avatars for both the challenger and the racer
