Question for Graphics Designers
I've recently started designing my own sites, and while I quite like the results, I am wondering if you can help me solve the following issue.
Sometimes, I seem to have difficulties coming up with ways of illustrating the concept of the site for the purposes of the header image. For example, let's take the Job Interview niche - the first thing that comes to mind is the picture of two people in an interview, but that's not really something you can put on the header, because, in my opinion, it's too specific and not conceptual enough for a sales letter site.
I've tried everything - CVs, resumes, flying oodles of cash, successful man jumping up in the sky - in short, everything I could think of, and yet neither seems to fully capture the concept of a job interview.
As such, I was wondering if the designers here would care to share any tips they have for overcoming what is, for lack of a better word, the designer's block. Exactly how do you come up with ways to represent the concept of the subject matter, as opposed to simply depicting it with an image involving people (which, to me, is a bit of an easy way out, unless it's in the relationship/dating niche)?
