Hi, Recently bought the banner for http://www.talkgeo.com. I paid $25, which is discounted because I reffered some people. Can you please share your views on it, Thanks, Hecky
talkgeo - nice i think the "TalkGeo" and the picture should be the other way around text on left. The image looks a little weird i dunno why, maybe coz it cuts off abruptly, might look bett if it faded into the grey instead of just those brown lines but i dunno But Very Nice
pretty nice... but some spaces of the banner are not occupied with something or designs to suit the header... maybe you could add a little more design so that it would look much prettier...
that's $25?...i don't really like the design..sorry to say that..the image really makes me confused...what is the picture really about.. my suggestion is.put a 2.0 logo there..for talkgeo.com...that's better..no attach that picture..but if the picture is related with your site..go on..for me..this is not...
Yeah, I must agree with you, I got the guy to make the image, and I had to combine it into a banner, which I didn't think was going to be such a big thing, but obviously it is quite hard. -Hecky
Yeah, all this artsy fartsy stuff to do it right is a little harder than most people are willing to credit or pay for. Most of us have art school backgrounds and years of experience. Women spend more than 25.00 on a handbag, that they use for a few months. This image is going to represent you in the professional community, you shouldn't be looking for just anything on the cheap.
Question are those snowcapped mountains in the background? The image is ok, but what really does it say to anyone about the Nile. The Nile is rich in history and civilization. If you are just focusiing on geology, I am not seeing much that represents folding and faulting, volcanic action, river or weather erosion....I think you need to be more clear on your actual focus.
I have to disagree with you there, this IS NOT cheap, as I said in the origional post, I paid $25 off a usual price of $75, because I reffered a large customer.
Image needs to be on the other side of the header with the text on the left. Don't get the point of the brown borders on either side of the pic, just separates it more from the green header. Pic is ok, doesn't really convey the theme of your site though (environment). Maybe if you changed the header to green it would come together a bit more?
The graphic doesn't look well integrated into the banner design.... is it a stock graph? if it is.. this isn't worth $25. What would work is adding a brown background to the left side of the banner..
It was custom made, yeah, and that's a nice idea, I'll have a fiddle about now I know there are issues with integration, I asked about having the lines from the sun going all the way round the banner, what do you think?
