Hey, For this contest I need a simply yet effective professional web 2.0 header designed for this website. http://findabusiness.org It should use rounded corners to suit the rest of the boxes. Should incorporate a greyish design, possibly use of shadows and gradients. And a hint of blue. The header should contain the words "Your all in one business development tool!" and perhaps "FindABusiness.org". Should be the same length as the current search bar. A really simple task and winner will receive $10. The thing that I'm looking for most is for the header to fit the style of the homepage, regardless if it's of a different color to that mentioned above. I will obviously provide feedback for each design.
Yep, pretty much the type of the design I was looking for, looks great thanks. Only thing I would change is the existing "findabusiness.org" URL at the top of the logo. That would need to be changed to something other than what is already in the search bar.
Oops, wasn't supposed to say logo. Was referring to the header obviously. Thanks, looks good. The gradient on "Your All in One" should be just a little less transparent towards the bottom. Literally, half a shade more opaque. Other than that, good work.
Great progress guys. xhanch - Your third one is pretty good, although I need the dollar sign at the back to contrast just a little bit more. At the moment, I actually missed altogether the first time I looked at it. Put a "!" after tool and if you can somehow fit the URL in there nicely. buncoh - Quite happy with this, don't really much more to say except, maybe try to make the URL stand out a little more. Spread it out at the top of the header, length wise perhaps? Or whatever else you think is best. jtoms - Border will need to fit the current design of the site, so it will need to be grey. The URL/logo will need to be different from what the current design is in the search bar.
First one in your revision looks pretty good but as I said can you make the $ stand out a little more.
