This is my first design for the header contest - it plays off the yellow pages, but in this case orange.

Despite a similarity in looks to the yellow pages header, all elements of the design were either taken from the contest page, or created by me.

Hope you like it!

Looks pretty nice, although a bit too dark for my taste. And the orange seems blurry/low quality, is that on purpose?

The orange wasn’t supposed to be blurry, but I just copied it off the Kirupa homepage. I needed to scale it up, but that obviously loses quality. If that header is chosen for any further development that orange would just be redone at a higher resolution.

you should scale it 2x using the nearest neighbor method, and it will just look like bigger pixels.

I’m not familiar with the “nearest neighbor method”…care to elaborate?
