$35 Contest For A Good Looking Header

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by matthardy, May 9, 2008.

    Hi friends. I need a good header design for my wordpress blog. Actually I have a header with a mascot in it already. But i am using it elsewhere for different purpose. Here is an idea of what header I had earlier

    http://tinyurl.com/68d6hm

    I need a similar looking header, with a boy on the left side. And a colorful banner on the right side with the words "Q4News" in some decorative style. The subtitle for the word Q4News must be "Webmaster News And Stuff" I need the header to have some bright blue color in it as the wordpress design is blue based.

    Make the header as colorful as possible. That is my only request. :)

    Contest gets over by Wednesday or earlier if I get satisfied with a design. Please come up with some innovative ideas. I am not strictly wanting a boy on the left side with a magnifying glass. You can design anything you want. i just want it to be apt for the site q4news[dot]com

    Thank you

    Excellent stuff there man! I never thought in this angle. A news van! Depicting quest for news perfectly! - But I would be happier if it used more than just blue. I need it to have a blueish look. But I would like to see a few other vibrant colors too. Can u do something to it? :)

    Lets see what other good ideas pop up from other brilliant minds here in DP :)

    This is your first post in this forum and it is a marvelous one too! :)

    Everything looks good. Except for the subtitle. it is a bit tough to read as it is too light. And also the News, seen in the Q4News title can be given some other bright color rather than being dull. :) Actually Q4 is also a bit dull and tough to read. Can u cook up something brighter in that region of the header?

    Anyways your first post here has earned you some rep.

    Nice design. Thanks for taking time to make the suggestions I gave. :)


    I think its time I announced the winner! I have got a total of 4 contenders here in my contest. I dont think I need anymore time to decide my winner!

    I have chosen Naldz's design as I feel it has all that I want. I will be requesting Naldz to remove the tv picture on the left side. I will open another contest thread here for a mascot to be placed on the left side.

    PMing you now Naldz. :)

    Thank you others for your efforts.

    Thank you for your participation. You were a tough contender to beat. But Naldz definitely caught my eyes with his style of design....... :)
