Need a bit more info... Colour of the webpage? Business name etc etc.

Why do I find it comical that he's starting a web design business but can't come up with his own banner?

Yeah, he should probably learn to design first.

I put some effort in this time:

Edit: This is in reference to the Web 2.0 crazy of stupid primary-school-style colours and design; the gay reference is not intended to offend black people or people or those minging gingers, and is certainly not talking about the OP or the OP's friend. It could be talking about me, though, since obviously one has to be slightly deranged and mentally ill to produce the pile of crap above this elongated paragraph

You paid a fortune for that font, didn't you?

edit: I see what you did there. Tricky! Looks like one of those Sans-something fonts only available for £49 from Adobe.

ATTENTION FRIEND OF OP:

do nt use his guys banner eventho it looks good cuz he dnt know what hes on about!!!

the_box · 7 Mar 2006 at 20:28

well he just wants somthing really different to what hes used to hence he wanted someone else to do a design!

color wise somthing in blue would be good

Beansprout · 7 Mar 2006 at 20:36

No, his banner should be in his style else it's pointless.

Client: "I like the style of your banner"
Him: "...."

Sorry but thats utter ********.

I design websites/graphics and if you can't come up with different ideas, you cannot be in the trade.

If he needs other people to think of different styles and ideas, within two weeks he'll be stuck doing other peoples sites.

If he doesn't enjoy designing, or simply can't do it, why is he setting up a web design business? :rolleyes:
