Yeah, I was thinking it was just going to be inserted in the middle of the header bar... that would look pretty strange.
I think it would look good on either the right or left sides (doesn't seem like something symmetric that should be in the middle, but I'm no architect ). I assume you're intending to extend the "pattern" across the entire header... that would look pretty good.
I'm still wondering how it will look with all of the other plain-ass blocks of green around. I would probably have to see it to be able to get a good idea... I've never been good with visualizing colors.
the question of positioning has been going through my mind and i'm still not sure quite what the solution is. as i said my intention was always to just take over the whole bar [designer meglomania ], but that might not be the best approach.
blending in is less of a problem i think, as long as the background shades are based on [or actually contain block of] the green that forms the borders of the rest of the site.
perhaps i'll do a mu fu style screenshot to see if it works.
it's amazing how somehting so straightforward can get so complex when you really think about it
*edit - if it is on either side then it's on the right, that much i do know
Yeah, I was thinking right as well - looked like you intended it to be that way. I guess you could center otcentral on the header, and fill in on each side... but I kind of like the way it looks now.
