I've been looking at this far too long

[switch842]

I've been futzing around with a new header for my LJ. It's Jack/Ianto, obviously. But I need some independent eyes to look at it now, cos it's just gone all wonky on me. I can't tell anymore if I like it or not or what needs to be fixed. So, I'm leaving it out to you, my dear f-list. Is this OK? Does it need fixing? Is the coloring OK? Any and all honest concrit is appreciated. :-)

I would lower the leftmost text some so it isn't right on top of the border thing.

Also, maybe lower the opacity of the text a little? Or choose a greyish off-white instead? The bright white in comparison to everything else kind of draws your eyes there instead of to the pics, and I think you'd really rather the pretty be the focus.

The pics/coloring/blending all looks nice. Only other thing I'd do would be to mask/erase/whatever the bit of border-splatter stuff that gets close being on Jack or Ianto's faces.


That's all I've got. Of course, feel free to tell me I'm clearly blind and stupid.

Thank you very much! That all makes perfect sense. I shall get on it straight away! :-)

*drools* I'd give you a more detailed analysis if I could get past the center picture. That kiss is sooooo hot!!

LOL. It was soooooooo hot on screen, too. Lots of nice slurpy noises, too. :-D

I like the header just fine. The border is good as it is. :) The text could be faded a bit more though, as Wraith is right in that the pics should be the center of attention. :)

I'm on it! :-)
