    Thanks, ScarletWolfe! I like the layout and images. I prefer a darker sepia coloring.

    To everyone: the compass image in the link is just a suggestion. You are welcome to use any images/ideas you have. :)

    I really like the various shades of color running though the background.

    "Your guide to vintage lures and reels" really stands out well.

    The image, and "Fishing Compass" aren't my favorites.

    I'm not sure about the blue... but a nice change.

    Thanks!

    Anyone else before I end this?

    This contest is set to end Saturday at noon. However, if no one else is interested in entering I might end it tomorrow evening at this time.

    If anyone would like the contest to stay open later than tomorrow night, please let me know.

    Thanks, shibligd!

    My favorite part is the text. It is so clear and stands out so well. The colors are nice too.

    I'm not sure about the images, but I love the text/colors!

    Everyone else, please let me know if you plan to enter as I may end this today or tomorrow night if no one else is going to enter.

    Thanks!

    One more try...now this is not a finished product due to need for images purchased...if I were to win Id probably add a few lures beside the compass like the one I added ...

    This compass image I purchased already, and the fishing basket one used in one of the photographs. Feedback appreciated.

    zeba5: I like the tatttered edge and LOVE the images! The text is not my favorite though... kind of reminds me of the tv show MASH.

    ScarletWolfe: The fishing lures around the compass are a great idea.

    shibligd: Your font/text is my favorite because it stands out and is easy to read. The images are not quite what I'm looking for though.

    RNHalawi: Your overall look and design I love... but am still not sure about the text. You know how the map is under the url text... and it is a plain color under the photos? Do you think if the map and solid color switched places the text woud stand out more? the map under the photos on the right and the solid color under the text?

    Contest will end at the sceduled time tomorrow at noon.

    Thanks, everyone!

    Hi, shibligd!

    Yes, I like the compass on the map... but it seems really fuzzy/light on the header. Is that because it is still the sample? Will it be clearer/darker when the image is purchased? The hook I'm not sure about.

    RNHalawi and shibligd: Thank you both for such great headers! It will be hard to choose a winner today!

    shibligd: If I choose you as the winner, would you be able to change the large black compass to a large antique compass?

    RNHalawi: Your header from post #32 is the one I like the best of yours.

    Good luck! The winner will be chosen at noon today when I get back from tutoring.
