new look to site

[modelreject]

Hi all,
Need a bit of a crit.
The real problem here are the headers. Not sure if the work being that light grey. It works in the sense that it doesn't detract from the look but there's just something!?!

Looks fine to me, I like it.

I also like it and wouldn't say there's much wrong with it. Perhaps use some of the green in the headers and have a different colour for each page.

I likes it!

If you can make the button have some effect on hover, that would be great.
Something in the lines of the logo.

[matthewjumps]

not bad.

only thing i dont like is the face - doesnt seem to work to me.

oh and that hand with the palm or watever it is in the bright area - i reckon it would be better without it.

[Starpromo]

Agree with Matthew there. That would be much better without the hand.

[skepticstudios]

I like it, but the hand must go

[Jr.canest]

i like it, just tell us when u have the animation ready
want to see it

[Icy Penguin]

I like it - but you are right - the header kind of detracts from the site too much - maybe reduce the size of the header by at least half.

Looking great otherwise, looking for ward to seeing the final product!

the problem for me isnt the header, its the font you're using in the logo... kind of clunky

[REEF·]

is that hand holding an iPhone!?

[RadioactveChimp]

^^ Hahah

I don't like the header, it looks like you combined too many found images and it looks strange/overcrowded. Birds are ok...get rid of the face and phone.

[lorren.biffin]

Haha, I actually love it. This is usually not my style(it's a VERY overused style) but i think you pulled it off.

Good work.

And BTW, it looks 100x better than the last version.

EDIT: on second look, the aliasing in the logo looks odd. You might have to recreate the logo as a vector smart object to keep reusing it like that.

Is that for a blog site? looks good! what is that graphic in the right side of the header?

[Pasquale]

Not feeling the header, ditch the dude, and just continue with the mountains. I like the nav though.

Thx everyone.
Haven't been on the forums for a few days.
Will get on to addressing some points that I agree with:
1. The font for the logo is a bit klunky. Any ideas of a suitable one?
2. The images in the header do look thrown together. Got get my photoshop skills together.
3. The hand image.
4. Looks very bland when I take away the images people have suggested.

Best,
CB

Here's a small redo.

The colours of the birds will replace the green on "About", "Portfolio" etc.
Logo is altered slightly.
Still can't find a font appropriate for the logo.

woohoo, i like it! maybe capitalize the logo? i dont know, if you cant find a good font from dafont.com your font styles might be the problem. try different things with it in the font controls.
