So I’m designing a new blog, as per my previous post.
I’m NOT a graphic designer. But I am a photographer. And I get the fact that the design of the blog has got be linked to the content. My point being that a landscape or a nature scène looks out of place when you’re discussing the finer points of programming languages or social networks.
On the other hand, you can’t always predict what you’re going to blog about ( at least in my case), so you want to be general in some way.
If you’re following me on Twitter or Friendfeed, you’ll see that I’ve been posting alot of the stuff I’ve found on web design in general.
So, brimming with inspiration, I’ve gone off and trawled through my photo archives for something relevant.
So here are a few that I’m thinking of using in a big way, as the header, footer, or both (i.e. cutting the picture in half):
Engineering:
Nasa:
Bright Spark:
All the images you see here are on Smugmug.
Let me know what you think.
