DateinaDash is on a distinguished road

  Old  Lost for ideas, frustrated...need help :)

Well i've been working on this site for a while now, personal portfolio for my brother who does commision graffiti and stuff....the specification wasn't that great initially and he's a pain in the backside to work with.

What do you guys think so far? I need a decent header to finish it off, but i'm totally stuck! Any thoughts? I was going for the cartoon clouds, site is called weareskyhigh.....

Please help a struggling admin



Regards.

Yeah, I was thinking it should be as well......btw what do you think of the site minus the heade/footer, ways to improve? Colours? Too brown, dull? Or not.....

Didn't want a business feel......yet I didn't want a retro/grunge feel....very hard site to design for!

There is alot of brown but it doesn't seem too overwhelming to me. Maybe another color but im not sure.
I think there must be a graffiti header though, just becuase graffiti kicks ass.

It doesn't look too businessy and it doesn't look to retro. Its clean and just displays the content well.

Maybe he could make some graffiti specifically to the theme of the site your making perhaps. Just a thought but I think the header should showcase atleast some of his graffiti.

I don't like the brown very much.

And I think you should add a bit of urban flare, or grunge into it... Spice!
