OT: Need some website input

Post by ScoopBrady »

I´m trying to improve the look of my site and was hoping for some input from you all.
<BR>
<BR>I have two examples I can´t decide between. The overall look is the same in both but the banners are different. Which looks better?
<BR>
<BR><!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://www.scooponsports.com/newlookindex.htm" TARGET="_blank">Example 1</A><!-- BBCode End -->
<BR>
<BR><!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://www.scooponsports.com/newlookindex2.htm" TARGET="_blank">Example 2</A><!-- BBCode End -->
<BR>
<BR>All criticism is encouraged.

Scoop:
<BR>
<BR>I like the first one because of the logo, and the look is better.
<BR>
<BR>But I would make one change: Increase the size of the font for the site name and decrease the size for the "Your Home for Sports and Sports Videogames" subhead.
<BR>
<BR>The subhead captures your attention more than the Scoop on Sports head, when in fact the opposite should occur.
<BR>
<BR>Take care,
<BR>PK

I agree with PK...I like the first one better, but the sizing does appear to be off.

Thanks for the input and advice guys. I changed the font sizes. Does it look better now?

Yup, much...
<BR>
<BR>You might want to center the smaller type below the title though...it´s off-center.

Thanks for the input guys. I was surprised that everyone I asked (here and elsewhere) all chose number 1. I went with number 1 and the new look is now live. Now I just have to find time to add new content. <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_frown.gif"> <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon24.gif">
