PolurNET.com New Logo/Header!

PolurNET · 12-30-2004, 03:21 PM

Check out our NEW header @ PolurNET.com

It's part of our upcoming template changes and better interface for our hosting site, which should be completed by beginning of the new year

What do you guys think?

Thanks!
Anand

Thanks TS, glad you like it

Wish I could do graphics like it! Well done.

Premium · 12-30-2004, 05:46 PM

Very good I like it, but if I'm not mistaken you used the graphic/background from a Template Monster template.

Thats the only thing that I would change as it doesn't look good if u take it from another template thats all over the internet.

Best Regards

Hi Jarrod,

Thanks for your comments

Well actually, the abstract background may seem like a TM (i think it was one in the 3000s), but it's quite changed already with my abstract art skills

I did keep that subtle server pic that slightly appears from the larger server pic, but that's just cause it looks cool

Anyway, I'll see if I can modify it more so that the resemblance is not shown.

Pretty damn nice looking.

Why only 630 pixels wide though? Just curious.

Great question Ron, I was waiting for that one

Not sure, I'm thinking of the new template style, whether it should be a "fixed" style (meaning designed for 800x600 users) or a "flexible/autostretch" style, which would work with all resolutions. The opnions on the current layout of PolurNET.com have been mixed, some saying they don't like the autostretch mode, others saying it looks neat...

Most professional sites I've seen have decided to use only fixed-mode styling, but I don't think it's such a great idea (although its much easier to code!) compared to a style in which takes the full browser width into account.

So based on that, I'd probably make the main logo (above) stick with that size, and put a background fill image in the template to give a full width look.

Any tips to which style I should go for? fixed or autostretch?

Thanks much,
Anand

I'm sure you can attest to the fact that our hosting has been quite reliable and friendly support, as you yourself still use our services

@se: thanks for the heads up, seems they bought the same stock image as me... I'll try changing the image a bit

dotcommakers · 12-31-2004, 07:47 AM

my personal thoughts

[1] its not bright design.. colors fonts are dull in colors see top menu items in gray
[2] bear image is unnecessory
[3] server type image below slogan and plug type image above company name is unnecessory
[4] black color in "u" is unnecessory
[5] make right side server image little smaller in height and make dotted line bar at bottom accross header

thats it i think

Shan · 12-31-2004, 08:45 AM

Nice job Anand! Both the banner and the logo look great, but could use a few changes.

1. The image of the Earth overlaps the "N" and doesn't make that part of the logo look good, if you put it behind the "N" then it'd look better.

2. The font you used for the "shared & reseller hosting", "domain registration", etc. is a little blurred and would look better if you used a pixel font.

PolurNET · 12-31-2004, 09:43 AM

Thanks for the nice reviews + feedback everyone!

I've made some changes that people recommended in the following version:
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=62461

@HellFear: pixel fonts is a good idea, i'll try and find the collections i have, and see if they look better. Till then, I've made the fonts a bit darker

@dotcommakers: I've extended the dotted line at the bottom

-Background has more texture now, for a "snowy" look

-server pic is tinted and "plastic" for a cool effect
- The world on top of the "N" is now over the letter, as HellFear suggested; looks nicer, I agree

Any more thoughts on the logo are appreciated; also please comment on the type of template I should use on the site: should it be FIXED or AUTOSTRETCH?

Happy New Year everyone!
Anand

se · 12-31-2004, 09:46 AM

AUTOSTRETCH is my opinion......

best if were made using swf....corel rave

Kodeking · 01-01-2005, 01:57 AM

Thanks Chels, I think i'm going to go with autostretch too, just like i already have on the site, but much more nicer looking as another educational site I designed, www.inforesourcenet.com
