Yeah that is what I was thinking, but it has to be done in a way that is more conservative. This is for more of a serious subject matter kind of website, that is basically why I am stumped at this particular moment. I also figured that maybe I just might make like a couple of divs, like 5 or 6 of them, that are basically just divs with filled in color, and just distribute them around the page.
I might just be thinking about keeping it like that also, it has a nice simplicity to it, which makes the text and everything on the page stand out that much more. Also the colors pop much better in the copy I have, than the copy you see.
I was also having my doubts about the logo too, I don't know exactly how good that is going to scale, I might have problems with that when I make a favicon, but then again, I can pull something similar to what many sites do (including this one), and make a whole different icon for a favicon....
Let's see, what else....
You know what? Honestly it looks simpler than most websites I have ever seen, but I really have to say that I like it the way it is. Anything else I could possibly add would probably be extraneous. Plus it looks better with the text not blocked out.
I was thinking also, in the upper right hand corner, to really make it pop, I could have like 15 guys there, like closely knit together and standing strong (almost like a 3 muskateers, but with like 11-15 people. Take the height of the banner, go about 40 px above and below, that is where they would be positioned. And have either a light blue stroke of all of them (outline), or just make white silouettes out of all of them, with the stroke being the same as the banner, that way it divides them, but blends in with the banner).
That sounds like a good idea to me, all I need though is to find like 11 good quality pictures and cut the guys out, that is going to take me literally like 5 days to do that........
anyways, let me stop this rant. This is how my mind thinks, scary huh?
