$20 header contest, 5 days

    Hi guys,
    I'm looking for new header for my website, it should be no larger then 500-wide by 110-tall...

    The color scheme should match the site's blue-ish theme (your webcode.com [no space]).

    The text of the title "Your WebCode" should emphasize the "WebCode" part more then the "Your", like the current header...

    Please try to make it "techie"...

    If all the entries are horrible, I reserve the right to not choose any and stick with my horrible paint shop pro abilities.

    I'm starting the contest at 9:30ish on June 24th, so the contest should officially end the evening of June 29th...

    I'll try to leave feedback for all entries...

    I hope I'm not forgetting anything...

    I didn't want to put a live link, incase the search engines would prefer this over my actual site, but I think it will be ok...

    shadowpwner,
    Thanks for your quick response to the contest. Your entry, though, seems a little too much like the current logo... I'm looking for something eye catching and new...
    But because no one else has entered so far, you are winning as of now :) haha

    Thanks for submitting an entry, easydisplayname. The colors do match the page, but I don't think the header flows with the rest of the site all that well...

    Hey YashBhatt, thanks for participating!
    It's definitely a step in the right direction compared to the logo on their now... But I really don't like the weird casing of the letters... I want it to look a little more professional...

    Thank you for your entry though, +REP

    Thanks for the submission...

    I like the way "your" has been de-emphasized... But I don't think it goes with the flow of the existing site design... It seems a little too.... "strong"? "dark"?

    Thanks again for participating, +REP

    I've been looking around some of these other contests...

    What is the deal with "Web 2.0", is that the way most people are designing stuff now? Would a "2.0" header look good?

    Well, 4 days and 7 hours until contest completion, any other takers?

    MsDriven79,

    Looking good! Thanks for the improvements...

    When we get close to the end I'm going to ask my partner to nitpick details... He'll be able to provide more constructive criticism...

    As far as I'm concerned though, I like it...
