Celebrity Gossip Banner Needed - $30

[john_nyc]

My site - http://www.celebridiot.com is in the beginning stages of a redesign.

size - 815x150

Site name: Celebridiot
Tagline: Because celebrities are idiots too!


I do not want any actual celebrity pictures in the header to avoid any future possible issues about someone claiming a copyright on my header image. Feel free to use an outline of a person, cartoon, etc..

The header will be the basis for a new theme so there is no need to base your colors on my current theme. Try to avoid anything to loud (bright pink type colors) I am looking for something eye catching and professional looking.

payment via paypal.

You can pm me with questions.

All projects must be posted in this thread.
If you are also a wordpress theme designer let me know - if I like your work we might be able to do more business.

Contest will run until Friday.

Enjoy! I hope this pink isn't to bright for you. Feedback welcome, if you need any editing just ask!

[john_nyc]

Zohar - Thank you for your entry. It looks more like a banner for a photo site instead of a gossip site. I am not a fan of the star - reminded my of celebcouch when i saw it. Also I can't see an entire site using pink/yellow combo.

Web - Thanks for the entry. I am not a fan of the stars and the colors are a bit too busy. Trying to find a color scheme that would really work with a new theme and lime/yellow could be tough. Also it is a bit difficult to read the name of the site - the celeb part.

[ZoharBlur]

What colors ae you looking for then?

[john_nyc]

i am a fan of blues - throw in some accent colors -- maybe a spotlight on the name of the site or on a figure -- just some ideas

[ZoharBlur]

Okay, will get working when I get home. Thanks!

I like this one -- the colors could work nicely in a site.....what i don't like is how the colors go from light blue to dark blue...if that were smoother it would have a cleaner look to me -- overall nice though

[john_nyc]

I like it the overall feel but I just don't think i like the font. The R just doesn't look like it flows nicely

[jboo14]

How about that?

Any other changes you would like to see made?

[john_nyc]

jboo - i like that a lot...very clean and smooth. is it possible to see different color combos if it isn't to much to ask?

[jboo14]

that isn't too much at all.
Any colors you would specifically like to see? I was thinking an orange and blue and maybe an orange and red to start

[jboo14]

2 new color combinations:

Jboo - impressive -- i really like your work

to everyone else don't think that you have to be similar to jboo -- i am open to all variations -- site has never been unique - always used free themes. Think of what would look really cool heading a new unique theme

[jboo14]

Thank you john :) please let me know if you need to see anymore changes in the future

[john_nyc]

coolwanz - really like the idea you have there. Personally I like the graphic you chose, but i think it would be betters as a female outline or profile type shot -- you know what i mean?

[Ariestoteles]

my try... feedback appreciated

[coolwanz]

Thanks john,

no problem, I will try to update it and incorporate what you suggested. :)

regards

[john_nyc]

ariestoteles - excellent work -- love the cartoon and shadow....don't know if i am a huge fan of the purple -- maybe tone that down a bit? trying to picture a new theme with that header and all the purple might be too much

[Ariestoteles]

colors revision as requested

[john_nyc]

cool and arie -
both excellent banners

I didn't think it was going to be this tough. i might have to buy a few of these.

I have to get some other opinions, but there are 3 banners here that I really like

[john_nyc]

aries - got some feedback from the wife nd I have to agree that the cartoon on the left looks a bit off -- the chest is a bit crazy....any other options for that character?

[Ariestoteles]

Ok, here's ... :)

[john_nyc]

Nice aries - that is much better. I am still getting feedback from some people on the headers i like - so I will be making a decision soon unless more entries come in today

Any more entries?

[john_nyc]

Based on the opinions i am getting Aries is currently leading, followed by jboo, and cool

in addition to the banner I would also like the winner to design a logo that could be used as an avatar or on a tshirt or on a new theme and a 125x125 box that could fit in sidebar of a wordpress theme -- To keep things uniform the winner of the banner will most likely get the business for the two others.

If they also have the ability to design a wordpress theme that is available also!! Good chance for a nice pay day

[jboo14]

Would you like to see examples of those items to help make your decision or are you just saying that as a side note?

[john_nyc]

as a side not - but if you think you can make a good logo/box that flows great color/idea wise with your banner it will make a difference. No matter what i need to get all those things and a theme done

[jboo14]

Ok well I just made up a 125x125 box for you to see, and of course it could be changed to any other colors as I showed you before
