Christmas 2011 - Forum Print

[Geoffrey]

This is designed to be used for ZetaBoards, just a simple Christmas theme I started designing and I may or may not end up actually coding it.

Looks alright, but seems like it's lacking a few things 😉

It's still in progress, and I have already done more to make it more "Christmas like" and I just haven't saved it as a png against yet. 😛

I know, just letting you know, bud 😉

My main problem with it is the fact that it lacks any kind of flare. It's boring. It's plain and it's linear. I'm not sure how you could do it, but you need to venture outside of your comfort zone. You need to stop using the basic shapes and look at the bigger designers for inspiration. Change things up, you can't expect to improve as a designer without learning from others and well, copying others. It's how you learn.

It's looking progressively better, it doesn't matter if you code it or not, you getting more practice and learning more, it's all that matters.

I love it so far, except the logo font, I'm not sure you've chosen correctly on that. Also it doesn't feel like an actual logo, rather header text being used inside a header box.

It's just a filler, it would change for each board using the theme anyways...
