Dan Clark Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Looks a bit busy and the bashring and pads don't really seem to fit in.Not that I know anything about design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 My thoughts exactly, with so much info needed it's hard to get it all on there anyway, add that to the (in my opinion) horrible font and tiny working area and it doesn't really add up to a nice brief for design.

Concussion Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Don't people get a bit obsessed about the elements that make up a good logo or banner etc = my last tutor? Sure everyone wants a nice logo/banner and why shouldn't they, but all that colour/font theory seems obsessive for not much reason to me.Makes no odds to me in the slightest, it's the product and service I'm bothered about and Heatsink fits the bill on both of those counts btw Steve.

Tomm Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I think a good banner can make the site look very professional. At the moment, the site does look a bit amateurish. I mean we all know that HSB makes great stuff, but I don't know whether a newcomer to the heatsink site would be that impressed?Anyway, here's my effort. You will notice that I skipped a few things out of the design brief - namely the address. I don't think it needs to be there and it makes it very hard to find space to put other bits (especially with the nav bar cutting into the banner). Likewise with the photo - I think it would be better without. But anyway:Or I can change the bg colour easily enough. How about a zesty green?!It probably needs a different picture. I stole that one from Maher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Concussion Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Fair enough, just got a prob with obsessiveness... I think those banners look great btw, like the orange one best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I'm not even going to try make one as my photoshop skills are non existant but can I suggest that someone tries to incorporate some CAD style areas in the background? I think that would go quite well with what Steve does- you know the type, a cog like it's been drawn on a drawing board with centrlines and shizzle...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I'm actually quite diggin' Sams ^^ although I reckon the main Heatsink Bikes logo should be solid rather than semi transparent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Yeah, I don't like the picture at all. But it was in the brief. Not sure what else would go there though. Will have a think. P.S. I like Sam's. Looks classy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
