Beast Posted September 4, 2014 Posted September 4, 2014 So I have a weight loss site and I'm planning on updating it but I've been so busy trying to make a background for it. However, I'm failing miserably at it and I was wondering if anybody here wanted to help me http://www.theflabdominaldiaries.wordpress.com I need a background and a title border too. I'm trying to come up with something but I want something fun and yet fitness-oriented.

I'm trying to come up with something but I want something fun and yet fitness-oriented. I'm reasonable handy at image editing, but I'm not that creative from scratch. If you can give me some specifics with images you want to use then I can knock something up for you.
Beast Posted September 6, 2014 Author Posted September 6, 2014 Thank you very much. It's more the title border more than the background because I know what I want for the background. My background will be black with white pictures with things relevant to weight loss and exercise. So I'll have things like weights, fruit, a water bottle, etc. If you don't mind, come up with a few designs for the title and I can work my way around it. It's hard trying to do it myself. I lost the creative flair I used to have many years ago.

I lost the creative flair I used to have many years ago. I'm not sure what you mean by "title border". Do you mean an image to replace the text where it currently says "The Flabdominal Diaries by Darren Camponi"? If so, what size specifications would the image be?
Beast Posted September 12, 2014 Author Posted September 12, 2014 940 x 200. I've tried to come up with designs but I'm failing. I really need more practice!
MoogleViper Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Here's a first draft. (I got the dimensions wrong and did 900x240. If you like it I can correct it.)
Beast Posted September 13, 2014 Author Posted September 13, 2014 Oh my God, that's totally awesome! I wanted something like that but when I tried it, it looked crap. I think it might have been because of the fonts I were using. I can totally work the background around that design. Everything is brilliant but could you also put "and Iseult Murphy" by my name as well because me and my friend will be doing it now. That would be great!
MoogleViper Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Here you go: I did Ideult's name in a different font to make it look like it was written by a separate person. I'm happy to change it if you want. I'm also happy to move the text around if you want it in a different position.
Beast Posted September 13, 2014 Author Posted September 13, 2014 It's brilliant! We love it! Thank you very much, dude! You did an awesome job! Did you want a mention in the blog?

I wouldn't be opposed to a mention in one of your posts. Feel free to use my real name (Sam Greveson). If you need help with the background then feel free to give me a shout.
Beast Posted September 14, 2014 Author Posted September 14, 2014 Thank you. I'm going to try and design it but if I get stuck, I'll give you a shout. I've put a thank you on my 'about' page
