Hello,
I think your entry #11 may have promise. I prefer the white background. However, the type is the wrong phrase. We are trying to use the phrase "35 Under 35" (or you could spell out, i.e., "35 Under Thirty-Five", if it works better.)
My apologies for not making myself clear. If you would like to revise your entry, I would be very interested in looking at what you come up with.
Thanks,
John at SEMA
