I did this header but when I add text it goes all fuzzy (I'm sooooo frustrated!!).

Would someone mind adding the following text to it for me (in the white space)???? Pretty please?? Here's the text I need followed by my suggestions....

1. Free Shipping within Continental US
(black, arial, bold, drop shadow or raised emboss)

2. Toll Free 1-866-490-5226
(black, arial, bold, drop shadow or emboss)

3. LIGHTING THE WAY
(slight motion trail (180 degrees) black, arial, bold, all caps, drop or emboss)

4. for the rest to follow.
(placed under and to the left of "lighting the way", red font, arial, bold, drop or emboss)



Of course the size of the text should be in proportion to the header but the text can be arranged anyway it looks good. Also if you know a way to make it better than above.... go hard.

EDIT: I know it's alot to ask which is why I'll ship whoever does this for me a free set of Xenon headlight bulbs (within US).

Nice logo, crashing! I can't help you but that's ok I wouldn't know what to do with the lights either. LOL

Ok this is a start just getting the basic Idea..Go from here and let me know

I did notice your truck pic tho is a little pixelated, Is the original like that?

Unfortunately the truck pic was like that to begin with.

I'm liking the look so far! The motion trail needs to be straight not sloped downwards like it is and the trail itself needs to be "lighter" in color. Also there needs to be a "period" after "for the rest to follow".

Just get the "free shipping" part in there and arrange it so it looks all purdy and we're all set.

Oh man - did I miss all the fun! man - I had to work late (reports, reports, and more reports - I tell you what, these crazy people - just because someone pays $50,000 for something they expect to see quality reports )

I took a stab at it anyways - way too big though (file size - it would have to be compressed a bit more to be worth using, but here it is anyways.



now...back to work ...do I ever get to sleep like a normal person...?

Holy cow Jayson....that's awesome! Anyone else is welcome to give it a go. Which ever one I use will get the Xenon bulbs.....sound good?

I would use the one he posted there. It looks great! Good Balance, Gradience, colors...

Hey Jayson! I likes
Thought I'd give a shot.. still honing the PS skills

Nice one Eddie. Thanks for giving it a go.

I think krazy's got it right though. The one Jayson posted is very eye catching and I've decided to use it. Thanks Jayson!

PM me your address and make, model and year of your vehicle and I'll have those bulbs shipped out asap.

Crash

Crashing, you might want to try slicing Jayson's banner into two pieces. For example, slice it straight down from the edge of reflection/shadow of the "L" in Lighting. This way you could adjust the compression for each piece and make the graphic "weigh" less. If you compress the entire banner to make it smaller (and I think you might want to do that, its quite large) the text won't look very sharp. Once you have two seperate graphics, compress each one to the smallest size that still looks good. Of course, you will also have to code the banner as two separate graphics but that's simple enough.

Nice job Jayson!

Yahooooo!! Hey guys - that was fun! ;)

Nice suggestion I'll add it to my list....lol

The banner is now in place and I'm quite pleased with it. What do you all think?

Check it out here

Jayson check your PM's.

ooh - You shouldn't do %'s on images - I can split uo the banner so it has the track on one image, the words on another, so the truck can be left justified, and the tect right justified - so when the screen is stretched the images will stick the the sides leaving some white space in the middle - no stretching

That would be sweet Jayson. You rock!

Just a quick tip on fuzzy text on the Web for the future ....

Photoshop and Illustrator (I don't know about other image editing or drawing programs) give you the ability to choose whether or not you want your text to be "anti-aliased" or not. This may or may not be the problem, but it never hurts to see what happens when you check or uncheck this option. Also, some fonts just never look good on screen. Some of my favorite print fonts work well at 10 or 12 points for printing, but pushing them any bigger makes them look awful, because of ligatures, serifs and other font stuff that makes my head reel and keeps companies like Linotype in the black.

Nice job The stretching doesn't work so if that can be fixed, you're all set.

Crash -

I PMed you the HTML and images for the banner fix

hope that works for you

Your the best Jayson!

Thank-you so much.
