0 David43 Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Hi guys, I'm looking into changing my graphics around for the redesign of my new website template. I have set up some graphics on the template tester although no doubt they could be improved upon. I'd like to change the banner, to something a little bit more eye catching, using the same colours preferably and change the nav headings too. And for the heading, I'd like some kind of text or logo that can be used as the watermark for the site and for banners, logos and stuff too, so I can use it on different sections of the site and on advertising. here are some of the graphics from the site that might be of use - http://tester.boavid.com/images/boavid-banner.jpg http://tester.boavid.com/images/boavid-bannerbg.jpg http://tester.boavid.com/images/nav-spacer.jpg I have a whole range of cutouts and PSDs if you would like to use them on the graphic. All help will be greatly appreciated. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/137609-graphic-request-thread/page/59/#findComment-2158425 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 super_serge Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 david can you be a bit more specific about what's on the banner..and if you were to use the same colors, ti would be quite difficult to make it catch the eye Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/137609-graphic-request-thread/page/59/#findComment-2160270 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 David43 Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 david can you be a bit more specific about what's on the banner..and if you were to use the same colors, ti would be quite difficult to make it catch the eye OK, well I'll give you guys a bit of creative control over the banner, forget using the same colour is you think thats a bad idea, just find something that would match the sites layout if possible. I'd like the banner to stand out and really impress. Below are the links for the series 1 and 2 DVD covers which might help you with the design. This is what show the site is based upon, so anything similar to these would look great. Series 1 Cover Series 2 Cover I have a whole selection of .PSD format cutouts I could supply you with too. And some individual squares of the characters similar to that of the series 1 cover. I'll try compile an image pack with all this stuff in it later on for you guys. About the banners exact design, something with the text 'Bo Avid' and below that 'boavid.com' or near to it. I want them two included. and maybe an image there somewhere too.

0 super_serge Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 I just checked your site again, and its black this time, and the logo sticks out, other than that, there arent many ideas i have on how to improve ur site..but it looks a lot better than before, in terms of catching eyes Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/137609-graphic-request-thread/page/59/#findComment-2165014 Share on other sites More sharing options...
