Design the BlenderNation Header

header2.jpgI guess we should rename ourselves 'BlendernaZen' this week - that reflects the feeling I got when I first saw Otávio Tatasoka's entry to our 'Design the BlenderNation Header' contest. I really appreciate the tranquility of this one - I think it makes a great header (especially after the dynamic graphic of Gustav last week!). Congratulations, Otávio! Your image will be on the site until next week.

To see the new header, you may need to press SHIFT+reload in your browser to force a cache refresh.

Keep the designs coming! Just paste them under this post. Also if your header image wasn't selected this week, I may still pick it next week.

    good work!
    I like this new way to exhibit the work of some artist.

    May be a section could make a gallery of all the past banners ?

    Why not to push the concept further in playing at css level.

    No node-setups involved. Don't laugh at the UV-texture, it was intended for testing purposes…dindn't look too bad in renderings so I let it be. I rendered out passes and tweaked them a little in shake (trying to teach myself shake atm, which can handle multilayer-.exr btw)

    @knekke:

    Thanks for the blend. I will be looking at it in more detail over the weekend. It's funny, when I look at the jpg - I had a completely different take on the structure (maybe had to do with the background and contrasting - shake?). For some reason, I was getting a very silky feel from the image.
