New Blog Header
Sat 2009/10/10 19:38 JST
Hi everyone, this is my 1st time posting on www.figure.fm so pardon me if there's anything wrong.
I have been wanting to post for quite a while now but just can't find the time. Now with exams over I will be posting more often here and on my new blog.
For more infor, please do drop by my blog and leave a comment o(^.^)o
Here's a new header for my blog.
Here's a preview of it
Awesome header (^_^) nicely photoshop'd. I can hardly see the cuts.
Thanks. That's because the actual picture size was very big. o(^.^)o
There's a way too many lines and colors. I recommend making a transparent darker/black glow/shadow for the text.
Oooo icic thanks for that advice. ^.^
I will experiment it later during my free time.
"Not to bad but it lacks something…"
Mainly.. The Figma's :p
Icic good one ^.^
I was intending to put figma in but after putting all my favorite anime characters...there was not enough space anymore >.<
maybe I should consider redoing it with only figma instead of all my favorite anime characters
i think the content is too full IMHO.
I can tell you worked really hard on this, but if I may suggest something... if you don't want to get rid of some of the characters to make it look less cluttered, if you're working with a program like Photoshop, put the characters all in one layer and put a layer completely filled with white right behind it. Go to the layer with the characters on it and lessen the opacity, so they don't stick out so much. That way they look like they go with each other more and the clutter won't be so evident. Also, the letters would stick out more!
I agree. A striking header is nice, but if people end up just looking at the header, it kinda defeats the purpose.
Too crowded.
It's great looking, in a way, but it needs to be less busy.
Well, first off... welcome to figure.fm! :D
And as Vixums and Guy(Thunder_God) has said, the banner is a bit too busy.
I suggest thinking of a single theme or a single series to feature... or you can out some of the characters there. Some just seemed to be forced to fit in the banner and it's so crowded, I thought the background was initially background of some of the photos you've placed there. I have to applaud your effort in extracting all these photos though.
You can also take photos of your figmas instead and photoshop them into a header. Your blog name is iFigma afterall. XD
I think will stick to this header for the time being until I find time to do the next one
Anyway thanks guys for the comments o(^.^)o
