Banner For My Website

[mikethedj4]

For the last couple of weeks I've been working on updating my official website, and I'm nearly done. I just gotta make some small banners for my affiliates, which I gotta wait on, till I can make BlenderTuts logo, and some of the affiliates make a logo for their website.

Plus the music page will be updates once I finish, my album, and you guys can findout more about that here.

Anyway on my affiliates page I made a nice banner in Gimp, and the only brush used was the clouds brush, but that's it, and I really think it's a nice banner, but what do you guys think???

not bad. Needs a little something to make the text standout different and not so blendy. Maybe just like an light outline or drop shd or something.

There's actually a small shadow under the text, I wanted it to fade in under the fog, but over the water so it has a nice feel to it. As the affiliates are all over the world which is how the banner was created, as over seas thing. If you get what I mean.

yup

The inner glow on the banner is waaaaayyyy to dark I'd recommend using a dark shade of blue and then putting a light opacity on the banner...


Oh and I don't if you are actually done with your affiliates list (since your in the midst of a redesign), but there's way too much empty space there you could fill that in quite easily with a description of each affiliate like I did here

I was planning on making some banners for the affiliates list, but I'm waiting still some get their logos made, plus I still gotta make BlenderTuts's as well, but yeah I'm gonna add the descriptions in them as well. (Didn't think of that)

I actually have 4 websites which are my own, and 1 which isn't my website, but I have full control over everything, it's a website for a company, and the owner of the company pays me for the site. Anyway I had to change hosts because I originally used VistaPanel to host my site, but I could only have 5 MySQL Databases, and 5 parked/addon/sub domains, and I went passed databases and domains, and needed more (Plus 300MB of Webspace). So I'm in the mix of transfering my files from VistaPanel to my new host Byethost, and I haft to download the files and upload them to the site manually. I got most of my sites back up, but some of the domains I used before, I keep getting an error, so I changed the names a bit for some of the sites, but I'm gonna wait 2 more days, and try to get my official site's domain back up, but if it doesn't work I'm gonna fill a support ticket out, and see if the admins can help me out with it. (I use Dot TK to give my site it's professional domain name by using name servers)

These are my websites so far (I still have to make web layouts)
http://blenderpimp.tk/ (Replacement for BlenderTuts)
http://gimppimp.tk/
http://freeweblayouts.tk/
http://hcew.tk/ (This is the site I mentioned that isn't mine, but I have full control read above if you're confused)

and my official website was originally http://officialspeed.tk/ but I'm trying to get that domain back, as it won't let me park the domain.
