Makeovers are Good
I’m contemplating a good banner makeover on my blog, but can’t seem to make any mental progress. Gradient again, maybe with a Fall-ish flavor? Photo of ME rather than clip art chick and my hands holding a bible? Cathedral pics? Computer images? Halloween stuff? George Bush photos? Sea urchins? Cats? Aliens?!
My mind is all aflutter.
Your thoughts?

Manatees????
How about a “this is me” collage… you, bible, rosary, bike, Treo, whatever else… around a solid color core w/ your title? Or your title in big bold halftone letters?
@AITCD: Ummm… eh? Well, I guess if you consider all of the family zoo trips to the zoo as of late, that could work.
@JeriM: Now there’s a woman who thinks like me. Love your ideas! I’ll post a few prototypes and put it up for vote.
Yep a collage….it would go well with the sidebar pix!
Why not install the rotating banner image plugin for WordPress and have something different with every page load? You can do a montage.. a montage of collage.. etc..
Just a thought!
I like Jeri’s idea. Maybe slip in an orange cat for good measure, lol.
@Nadine: I think so, too. Thanks for the recommendation!
@-sol: COOL. That’s exactly what I was looking for in an update. Heck I didn’t even know WordPress had a rotating banner plugin until you posted… THANKS!
@mannyed: How ’bout an orange AND a gray cat? Just a thought.
Jeesh - this password business is a pain in the butt-ola.
Anyhoo, I’m in behind the secret door.
So re: the banner, how about all of the above? Except I would ex-nay the GWB pic. Just a thought though.
@Holy: Yes, the password thing is annoying. I do apologize for that, but you wouldn’t believe how well it has kept out the creeping blog crud. So glad YOU got in though!
You talked me into it… GWB is officially ex-nay’ed from the rotating banner images. Too bad for him. (He gets enough publicity as it is.)
