Basic Graphic Design

I have a new website I am trying to get started on a standard shopping cart system, however I would like an appealing header graphic and homepage. The homepage does not require to be flash or interactive, but in the footer I do have a few images I would like to be used that I can code as links to a few other websites. I have a logo for the site to be used in the header but that may be modified to fit a better design. ## Deliverables View the site at [[login to view URL]][1] to understand the 2 peices I am looking to have designed. We are looking at just the header and the home page graphic. I already like the overal color palette but open to something different. The colors of the remaining elements can be controlled by the CSS for the website, so I can modify those to match a new design if needed.
