This one really stands out!

I would just like to make a suggestion. For the Kuwait Tower ball, can you cut the sky out--and instead just show the ball in front of the Kuwaiti skyline picture. I dont have photoshop, i wouldve tried it myself...

Please try that, it would look great!

ok i like this one, but replace the water towers with kuwait tower pic, and do what halawala suggested, it will look great :D

sorry skouli im not helping i dont know how to do these kinds of things without photoshop.

I used the magic wand for that, selected the sky and pressed delete.

Guys, if you have any other suggestions, or pictures to put, I can be more than happy to do anything.

Hey guys,

Well this is my first post on SkyscraperCity. I've been reading your posts and updates for a couple of months and I think what you guys are doing is great! Gawakom Allah.

Anyways, I want to add some of my suggestions too. I think the banner I have attached below by Crazy is the best one so far. But I think the Flag shouldn't cover half the city...maybe shift the skyline view to the right a bit so most of the skyline is showing and maybe add the Kuwait Towers photo to the right instead of another skyline picture...Sorry I'm not an expert in photoshop so I can't do it and show it to you myself....what do you guys think?
