New Header
Posted on March 11th, 2008 by Nick Sullivan under Internet BabelJust had my new header designed, I love it. Think it’s a big improvement and it’s just how I imagined it.
I’d give credit to the designers if I had a name… was just a recommendation from someone I know and an exchange of emails and payments 
Tell me what you think of the new header! Navigation bar will be coming soon and I should be slowly revamping Internet Babel’s look over the next few weeks.

well, let me be the first to say ……… WOW! Very impressive and it really is too bad you don’t have a name because I would be next in line for a header looking as good as this one!

Hmm… I dunno Nick, I honestly liked the old one better. If you change around your website a bit more to make it “fit in”, it could be great. Look at how I have the header set on my website. The bar underneath it, I put a gradient and pattern on to make it really connect the image with the content.
I like the mascot, but at first glance it looks like he has cancer, or something…the head is a bit weird. Just offering some constructive criticism

Haha, cancer. Just a shaved head, thanks for the input though. I definitely prefer the new one, think it just doesn’t fit as well for now because the rest of the site isn’t done.

Yeh, I’ll try find out for you and email you when I get a company name. If not I can just email you the contact’s address if you want one.

I like it. it is good to keep things new and fresh all the time. I am liking the blue!
March 11th, 2008 at 8:26 pm
Looks a lot better now that you added the blue background to the navigation bar
March 11th, 2008 at 8:48 pm
Yeah, I had no plans to leave it lol it’s just that the previous header had the navigation BG as part of the image. I still got a lot of new design elements to come yet

Hi Nick,
FYI - You’ve got some tabs at the top of your page - however there is also a banner ad there. Click on the tabs, but the banner ad obstructs the text underneath…
Probably should fix that.
…nice blog, will be following it! Found you from over at Tyler Cruz’ site…
Regards,
Mohamed

Hi Mohamed, thanks, yeh I was aware of this but only in IE 6. Are you using IE 6 by any chance? cuz tested in IE 7 and FF and works fine.

The header looks fabulous Nick! I love it
March 12th, 2008 at 3:26 am
The new header looks great with the blue!

Yeah, that header is bald-head-and-shoulders above the other one.
*snicker*

I like it - can you give us the name of the designer?
March 12th, 2008 at 9:02 pm
Really nice header. Congratulations
Little question, how much did you paid for it?
March 12th, 2008 at 9:05 pm
Thanks. Somewhere between $0 and $100,000,000

Great design and I think it brings a bit of character to the blog. You going to give details of your designer?
March 13th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
great comments here nick…by the way our team did the header…www.designfxpro.com

Hi - like your header, who did the caricature for you? I’ve seen a few sites doing them and prices range from $19 and up — but I’d rather go with someones recommendation…

…looks like a few people want to know who the designer is!
March 13th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
I’m using IE 7.0.5730.11.
March 13th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
Sorry, I didn’t notice - the designer has spoken!

That’s the company site guys. Brilliant logos.

… just double-checked, and it seems to work fine on johncow.com… something different with the implementation here??
March 13th, 2008 at 11:15 pm
Hmm, I’ll look into it, was meant to fix it a while back anyway. Cheers.

I like the cartoon icon! Is that taken from your own picture?
March 14th, 2008 at 5:16 pm
Yeh it sort of is. As you can see, doesn’t look exactly like me but is supposed to be me.
March 18th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
No worries! Thanks for the reply…
March 18th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
Thanks! Looks like they are in the process of setting up the site. I found a few other sites that do caricatures as well. Now just to find a “good” picture of me and send that in! I’m sure if I use a current picture I’ll scare everyone away.

it looks like you’re sitting on a pile of Soylent Green.
March 22nd, 2008 at 6:18 pm
designfxpro did that one.

That header is fantastic … I’ve seen those cartoony characters popping up more and more. Pretty hip!
