Simple header design needed - $25.00 USD via PayPal

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by thetwooldladies, Mar 17, 2012.

  1. #1
    I require a header for my website.
    I like the way the font looks in this site: badspiderbites .com (remove space before .com)
    I want to use this photo in the header: snakesandspiders .com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Black-Widow-Spider.jpg (remove space before .com)
    Background is white. Letters black and/or gray. Site is snakesandspiders .com (remove space before .com)
    Winner will be chosen but only if at least 5 header choices are given by different designers to choose from.
    Header width is 1024px.
    Thanks

    Wow, a lot of great entries already.
    @elli_boy: This is ok but a little too simple.
    @b0sAnChE: the .com sign is cute but not what I am looking for.
    @Sour002: You are on the right track. I like the way you did the "The Ultimate Guide....". Nice! Worried about the look of the gray background especially on the right hand side. The white does not fade into the gray very well.
    @vasista: I like this and also the extra effort in design for snakes part of the header.
    @pehulz: I like the fact that you are putting in a design change. It is good but not to my tastes at the moment.
    @mojamoja: I like what you have done but it seems too bunched up on the left.

    Thanks for the entries guys/girls. Waiting for a few more. If you have alternate designs ie. without photo or different text that is appropriate for the site I am eager to see those as well.
    I will be making a decision today around 5:00PM British Columbia, Canada time

    @Mr.Wrath Not enough individuality. Looks plain.

    I want to say thank you for everyone's effort. Most often you just read the responses as negative feedback and I wanted to assure you that your efforts are appreciated,respected, and the feedback is only a matter of my personal taste.
    I think all entries are great, some better than others.

    @ovidiu12 - Very Cool. I like the concept but the "and" bothers me. I also Like how the others are incorpoating the ".com" into it, like Sour002 and Vansista.
    @Sour002 - Very nice cleanup. Snake does not work for me. Nesting the spider on the "p" I like. Perhaps get rid of snake and move the Black Widow a little to the right?. Great shadow work under Black Widow by the way.
    @gamezfever - Thanks for the entry but nothing near what I am looking for.
    @vansista - I like the way you put the .com
    @Jerlene.net - Nice, but rough.

    If this helps any of you I have an assortment other photos you may use here:
    Black Widows: http://www.snakesandspiders .com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/iStockXSmall-black-widow-PURCHASED.jpg (remove space before .com)
    Tranchulas: http://www.snakesandspiders .com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/iStock_000003733345XSmallPURCHASED1.jpg (remove space before .com)
    Another Tranchula position: http://www.snakesandspiders .com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/iStock_000015876540XSmallPURCHASED.jpg (remove space before .com)
    Cobra: http://www.snakesandspiders .com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/iStock_000010199065XSmallPURCHASED.jpg (remove space before .com)
    Green Snake: http://www.snakesandspiders .com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/iStock_000004748418XSmallPURCHASED.jpg (remove space before .com)

    Thanks everyone, hope to see more fixes and new ideas.

    @Mr. Wrath - That's better. I like the idea of the spider going the other way.
    Thanks. I posted the above links a minute after you posted your last photo.
