nrg_alpha Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Well, I haven't made the rest of my design. I'll just resize it accordingly once I do. So if I understand this correctly... you're header claims to be in Beta, and you only have that header? I mean no offense, but wouldn't it be better to hammer out an entire design first, then present that here and see what can collectively be critiqued as opposed to starting with a header graphic? Sorta feels like trying to put the carriage in front of the horse. Keep in mind that a single graphic may look out of place on its own, but in place within its surroundings, it may look better.

Lamez Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 It is getting better, and better each time, I really like the last one. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/130390-website-header-critique/page/2/#findComment-677174 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, NRG I'm actually getting someone to "hammer out" a design while I do this. You can critique it as soon as he's done Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/130390-website-header-critique/page/2/#findComment-677205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
moon 111 Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 What kind of nav do you think would go with this? What kind of style?

cupidstoejam Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm afraid to say anything, you might get all pissed off again. My lasy comments stands. The design needs some visual clues as to what the site offers.

dropfaith Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 meh the header is infact getting better but the design is lackingwhich may in fact be that the features arent up on it yet Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/130390-website-header-critique/page/2/#findComment-677603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I think the header would look fine if you had something on the right side. For example you could fade into something else to do with your site. Maybe add some rounded corners or something.

ILMV Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Just remember, before you go live (probably before testing), optimize those images, it took a good while for my browser to loads them, in the wrong order...

JasonLewis Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I like www.colourlovers.com. Good source for color schemes. That ColorBlender looks pretty good though. I'll remember that one.

nrg_alpha Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 ColorBlender.com will help match complimenting colours. This looks like a nice tool indeed. Something perhaps worth posting in the resources page?
