Website Header Contest - $35 Instant PayPal payment

Discussion in 'Design Contests' started by moorisey, Oct 8, 2008.

    Hello,

    I am in need of a header for the following website:

    [​IMG]


    The slogan to incorporate into the header is:

    Fear Your Competition .. Or Pity the Foo'


    The size of the header is 892x176

    This website offers web design tips, SEO tricks and promotion ideas. I am open to your creative input. I was thinking something along the lines of brass knuckles with SEO or FOO stamped in the middle, but I am open to other ideas.

    With color scheme - I am looking for either black and red or blue and white.

    Payment will be instant via PayPal once the winner is chosen. I need the files in PSD as well as a simple JPG or GIF web ready format.

    This content will last a maximum of 48 hours - although it may end in advance if a winner is selected.

    itrungs - thank you for your PM. The color scheme looked nice, but I felt that it was a little retro looking.

    Caj - I also like your color scheme. The problem I had is that the slogan is very small and hard to read, while there is still plenty of open space.

    Overall for both entries, I feel that the plain text with a solid color background is a bit too dull. There should be some graphic, that is why I suggested brass knuckles with the stamp "Foo" on it. As you can tell by the Pitty The Foo slogan we are trying to incorporate a theme similar to Mr. T (From the A-Team tv show) who coined the slogan.

    Thank you both for your efforts! I look forward to seeing more submissions or revisions :)

    Hello Everyone! Thank you for your entries. Below is my feedback:

    LADYBUGZ: Fantastic entry! Very well done - I do not believe that we need the eyeballs in the word Foo and it should end with an apostrophe, such as Foo'

    KKRAWAL: Sorry my friend, this color scheme missed the mark and it is not graphical enough (aside from the bubbly words)

    Emzdesign: I must say that your entry is quite creative, it takes the theme in a slightly different direction, yet I get the sense of the action. I do like your entry, and it will be in consideration, however, I do feel like this could be utilized for a sky diving website and that is not the target audience.

    I plan to conclude this content within 24 hours. Thank you everyone!

    Further applause Ladybugz! I love the first corrected version with the two tone brass knuckles. This will be hard to beat. As they say folks, this contest is going once... going twice..

    Feedback is appreciated, hope to hear from you soon! If you would want me to incorporate the brass knuckles in there, I can most likely do that.

    Thank you silentcivilian - Your efforts and entry are appreciated, however, this is difficult to read and I did desire a more creative style with a richer graphical design.

    mnuismnu - thank you, I have responded via PM
    trust_exit - This appears to be a Halloween inspired header, which is nice for the time of year, but not ideal for our website.

    Thank you!
