We need a new header!

45

We could use a fresh header image here at BlenderNation! If you have a cool Blender design and you'd like to enjoy a few weeks of fame, read on.

To submit your work, post a link to it in a comment below. Here are some guidelines:

  • only submit complete, 'ready to use' headers.
  • use the correct format (700×100 pixels). (size updated)
  • use the correct background color (#3388cc).
  • don't use the left-side of the image (as the BlenderNation text and menu will be there).
  • please add your own name to the far right in a font like Arial or Helvetica.

Extra hints:

  • always make sure that your image has a gradient to the background color (#3388cc) at the left; the header has a 'fluid' design meaning that if the page is wider than 700 pixels, extra blue will be added to the left. If you don't use a gradient, this will show as a discontinuity in the background color.
  • again, use the correct background color.
  • don't put any text at the bottom of your image; our menu will be printed over it.

Have fun!

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

  1. I think BlenderNation can read minds...

    I was just thinking that you should change the header soon as the BBB has been there for a while

    I thought an apricot (Yo Frankie!) one might look good...

    might try making one myself :)

  2. Hey Bart.. maybe I can suggest an apricot banner of Yo Frankie.. keeping with big buck bunny theme.. seeing as the game will be coming out soon?

  3. Lot's of talent. I especially like the dinosaur wooden models by Kubeczek77.

    It would be nice to see a banner containing something from the near completed Project London. Maybe the project will be even closer to completed on the next banner change.

  4. This contain art from my Blender cartoon Zombie Kid.

    This is a Render(and model) I did for my girlfriend's thesis project.

    The project is a structure based on Origami Tessellations by Ron Resch. It is currently participating on a national(Chilean) competition of Architectural thesis projects, you can see more of it(and my renders along with it :D) here:

  7. You know what I think would be cool.

    Take the top 20 designs and randomly load one of them whenever you load a page.
