I've been tweaking the look and feel at Roamsters<\/a> again and this time I really wanted to change the header graphic out.<\/h3>\n

This is the old header graphic — something I just cobbled together one day. A little boring, don't you think?<\/p>\n

\"Roamsters<\/p>\n

Yesterday, I went over to 99Designs<\/a> and almost submitted a budget logo project for $195, which gets you about 40 design submissions.<\/p>\n

Then I remembered how most folks absolutely hated the new logo<\/a> that I had done for NetProfitsToday — at great expense, I might add.<\/p>\n

As my design skills extend only to adding a linear gradient (making the color go from light to dark) and I can usually mess that up too — I can't ‘just cobble together' a really nice one with fancy design elements.<\/p>\n

But this morning, after looking at a few cheesy freebie offerings, I finally got the bright idea to search for “headers<\/em>” and “logos<\/em>” at BigStockPhoto<\/a> and was blown away by all the gorgeous headers that came up.<\/p>\n

Well, here's the one I chose, which I think is much more fun and vibrant than the old one.<\/p>\n

\"Roamsters<\/p>\n

It cost one whole dollar — saving me $194, a week of waiting for those submissions to come in and the possibility that I wouldn't like any of the designs.<\/p>\n

Because the design elements stretched right across the header, I did<\/em> have to do a little tweaking to add some ‘blank space' on the left side to put in the Roamsters logo and tag line. If you're concerned about having to do any<\/em> tweaking, there are plenty of headers that already incorporate ‘white' or blank space for logos.<\/p>\n

So, what do you think?<\/h3>\n

Like it? Hate it? Should I change the Roamsters name to orange?<\/p>\n

I hope you like it. Then again, I'm not overly concerned if the consensus runs generally negative — because a new header graphic will only cost a buck<\/strong>! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
