    Default Design Jazz's Blog Header

    I am currently working on a blog to share work that I do on my days off revolving around vintage computing and the internal workings of such devices.
    How bland is a blog without a custom or relevant header? VERY!

    Make one for me and I will share rep points! yay

    one such inspiration of mine would have to be Little-Scale.

    dimensions pl0x. It already looks better than my blog though, so I'll probably fuck it up.

    Also, do you want some kind of logo, or Photoshopped pics? Do you have anything in mind?

    EDIT: Nice blog btw, I would subscribe if I had some idea about what the hell this is all about.

    Dimensions aren't important as long as it it longer than it is tall.
    Something like 700x300px would be fine. Longer would also be fine. My focus of the blog will be 8-bit computers (Zilog z80, Intel8080, 8085, etc.) but with no limitations. Devices supporting parallel communication for now, but maybe serial in the future.

    Behold, the awesome power of mein photoshop:

    I'm obviously no graphics designer, and making logos takes time which I don't have right now.

    EDIT: I also have no idea what I should be doing, just googled some pictures and stitched them together.

    EDIT 2: PSD file here. You can mess around with it if you like.

    I do like it but I think the title could use a little work and idk if I care for the ears peeking in.
    People have been using slideshow pics in their sigs, so I may just add this to any other headers people offer.

    I agree the title should be a logo of some sort really, but I'm too tired and don't have enough time for that right now. I'll probably be going offline for 2 days in less than an hour. If something came to my mind I'll update. If you have photoshop or gimp you can download the psd file and mess around with it yourself.

    A little too simple, but I appreciate you doing your homework.
    I may want to do my own logo. Something related to my PCB design...unfortunately, the renderer is malfunctioning. Zoom in, I dare ya.
