Like My New Header Graphic? Get One Custom Designed for $50!
By Matt Jones on Jul 20, 2007 in Blog Marketing
Some of you may remember a couple of months ago Garry Conn gave me a helping hand with my old blog where he designed a great header graphic and tweaked the CSS. As you can see he has made a brand new header graphic for Blogging Fingers as well.
Today on his blog he announced himself officially up for hire as a graphic designer. What he offers is a bargain that is un-matched in value (I’m not getting paid to say this!). For $50 he will custom design a unique header graphic.
Why is Having a Graphical Header Important?
Ultimately a header graphic is important for branding and standing out of the crowd.
Examples of Garry’s work:
He has listed numerous examples on his blog. You can see his latest work at Airplane Blog, a niche blog where he plans to build a thriving community for aircraft enthusiasts.
Conclusion
If you want a unique header graphic for your blog then why not head on over to Garry Conn Dot Com and take a look at his past work. It really is a bargain. Best of luck Garry and thanks for the graphic.

Wow man, thanks for the mention. I haven’t heard back from you after your last IM that said you were having trouble viewing the graphic in Firefox… looks fine on my end, but still… contact me back and let me know it is still giving your trouble.
I like it. It is easy enough to read but still complex enough to hold my interest and make me look at it again. I also like the colors and the font is funky but will hold up well over time. Nice work, Garry.
Thank AJ,
I am glad you like it…
Matt should be getting my invoice any day now.
Just joking..
Matt is doing some excellent work here. I love the theme he is using and I really enjoy what he is writing. It’s definately one of my regular reads.
Take care,
Garry
Looks Nice btw i am also a Graphic Designer i will checkout Garry’s Blog
Hi Garry and Matt,
Honestly, i think a little more thought should’ve gone in to make that header image. it looks a bit basic and 90’s photoshop like. Or was it deliberate Matt?
When i look at it it looks “sticking out” from the rest of the template - am i talking odd?
I would’ve expected you to use some gradients and reflections using layers. As of now, apart from a pattern and drop shadow, i can’t think anything significant enough to make me look at it again.
I think Garry has more potential and can come up with something more hep and web2.0
Please take this as positive criticism.
Cheers!

Thanks Mani, all criticism is much appreciated. Now you mention it, it does seem to stick out from the page a bit… I’ll see what I can do but it’s going to stay for a little while at least.
