Do you like this header?

[Quilst]

Simple question, and if yes or no - why?

[Alex Taylor]

Personally, I'd go with something quieter

If I ever design a new cover, graphic, or header, I used to spend hours fiddling with some complex design, only to realise that simple never fails and is almost always best.

I now go with simple first every time and lose those wasted hours on OTT stuff.

[Andy1750]

It's a bit difficult to say without seeing how it looks on your site. However, I'd agree with Alex's comment - it's a bit loud for me!

Andy

[Brad Gosse]

No. Too antiquated. My first reaction is Superman vs The Hulk

[artwebster]

It's a virulent green that makes many people want to throw up. It is over bright and should really be hanging outside a knocking shop to make it difficult to recognise the punters going in and coming out. Another problem you have is that shadows that go both ways with no apparent light source are very uncomfortable to observe - even with only one eye.

Apart from that, I don't like it.

[Quilst]

Wow! Such negative response.

I do agree artwebster about the lightning part.

[Barbara Wilson]

I can't say that I like it much. For many of the reasons Art gave. But whether it's a good header or not would depend on the type of site it's intended for. I'm probably going to show my age here by using incorrect slang . I guess it could be a good header if it's to be used on some kind of punk site or some site with a funky purpose. With a black background and green text or something. (I don't visit these sites myself. The subject doesn't appeal to me and I can't read them anyway! ) Maybe you should ask someone around 12 years old if they like it - you'll probably get a more relavent opinion.

[Dayne Dylan]

Nope, don't like it one bit. If I saw a website with header like that, I would click away in a heartbeat.

Sorry, brutal honesty. Good luck though on the next version.

[7digital]

Sorry, but I don't like it. The ending after the word fun, didn't seem to make sense to me. Although I got what you are trying to say by adding it at the end like that.

[Quilst]

Will you stick around and see my modification of it?

I just want to see the result this time

BTW I was thinking of Hulk when I was creating this header - LOL

[Kevin AKA Hubcap]

I agree with Alex. something simpler and quieter would work better.

[lilmechante01]

I'd have to agree with Andy1750, it's a bit hard to say without seeing how it fits in with your website, and what content is on it. I like the concept of how you present "FUNonemom"...very clever If the main premise is "time for fun" then I picture a header that would be more reflective of fun...a little more "whimsical" with colors that "play" together. This one seems too "dark-sided" (unless that what's kind of fun it's about).

[Quilst]

Here's the variation on the theme

Any thoughts?

It is supose to be dark fun. Maybe for someone who would have a gaming site server site type -.... maybe...

[7digital]

Time 4 Funomenon can make sense if you tie it into the Hulk theme. At first when I looked at it, I knew you ment " phenomenon " but it seemed corny and didn't really make much sense. However, now that you are going to put pictures of the Incredible Hulk to it, it will definitely flow well!

[7digital]

Your new graphic is nicer. It has almost child-like features to it. I didn't like, " Sky's the limit." I think you could leave that off. It looks better without it.

A nice scaring hulk to roar next to it

It reminds me of kids toys. And I think that the color choice of the words fits with the words

[Quilst]

I like the feedback guys - that is exactly what I need.

I am open to both sides - marketers and designers

I want to hear both sides of the coin that spins here on WF

[lilmechante01]

well...the coloring in the second just doesn't do anything for me...comes up a strange khacki-pea green on my computer...and the combo with the red makes me think of a sickly christmas. i liked the gradient-style on the first time4fun...just needed to maybe be a little lighter.

[Charles3k]

The second one is much better than the first.

[Quilst]

My toughts too

[steve m]

I like the second one better but still not perfect mate. As the person above stated the colour scheme is very christmasy. But you're definitly getting there mate.

Have a little play and yor get it for sure, with out a doubt the second is better but you can still improve it.

PS TBH with you I didn't know you were try to get phenominum with the thrase funominum....

But TBH I'm not the most sharpest tool in the tool box ha ha ha!

Good luck mate

Steve M

[lilmechante01]

just curious...what are the sites main colors? If you are going for a "dark" & "gaming" approach, maybe something kinda sci-fi-ish (lol like the first...just not all green)?

[Quilst]

Just testing before final result appears by itself.

I could add a dude next to the green header...hmmmm

[jamesviago]

2nd much better - i agree with the christmas comment though.
dump the 'sky is the limit'... Time 4 Fun conveys the message (i assume that i'm about to have some fun now?) it doesn't need the distraction of a suffix.

[Quilst]

I'we made one more variation:

The lil Dude with the YoYo finishes off. The colour avriation is alot more smoother to

[steve m]

Also TBH with you everyone here is going to have a different view. Your never going to please us all so stop trying to ha ha!

[Quilst]

I don't intent to please every single one who posts here. Just looking for what people think

2 greeny
2 shiny
2 upsidedown
2 pac

lol

doesn't do it for me - i prefer to let my imagination fill in the blanks after i see a word like fun. less is more with this title.

kid with a yoyo does not strike me as fun. of course, if you're about to offer me a yoyo, then that's an appropriate filter i guess.

One yoyo for $3 are you up for it?

Maybe a group of TEENS on "guitar hero" will get the fun aspect across lol...

Saying that I dont really see a YOYO as fun either TBH but I didnt look at the figure in that way,...

An affiliate YOYO site: *Note to self* YOYO keyword research lol

[lilmechante01]

what about a blue line behind...or a blue line with the green time4fun from the first graphic...or a yellow-orange gradient time4fun. the time4fun just seems too drab/bland in one color. also...input from my young "gamers"--the guy with the yo-yo looks more like he's bored than having fun.

[steve m]

@ Qulist what are your thoughts on it?

At the end of the day its your header after all ha ha

lmao speaking of entertaining..time for me to go to the store to get stuff for dinner and do a little creating of my own look forward to seeing whatcha come up with

[ElectricChili]

Ok, the one with the dude in it is OK for me except his shadow bothers me. The light source is coming from above on the text and the dude is casting a shadow all wrong. The shadow should be on the ground at his feet.

Could you buy me a yoyo? I will pay you - I'we just sold one for $3 - so try to go under that price

[Quilst]

Rich Scherlitz

Quite agree with you there - maybe I shouldn't put the shadow there since the dude is in 2d and letters are in 3d

[steve m]

Just go with it then send us the link to the site once its all done!

It doesn't take much to entertain me!

Maybe some 3d text and a 2d man with a shadow playing with a 3$ YOYO!

A rubics cube would of been so much more fun

Let me try this....

[Quilst]

Here's one with the rubics cube

[AliciaSpringer]

This is a nice 3D effect you have going here. In my opinion it's much improved from the first version that you posted.

[steve m]

Perfect Quilst:

Very much better nice and simple, go for it.

[jamesviago]

good enough, you can always split test it later. go for it

[edhan]

Your header seems okay but overall must be matching in order to blend the entire website. Seeing the header will be hard to tell if your site will be totally blended. Anyway, I like 3D effect.

my son (9 years old) said the same thing when i asked him if it looked like a good heading for a website and would he be interested...

he put it like this "yeah, it looks okay but it doesn't do nuffin yet so i dunno"
