Logo help for webmasters with no artistic talent:
check out the "logo" at the top of my webmaster.net site.
Do a view source and pinch the css at the top.
I'll cut & paste it here - hopefully the source code will show....
in the HEAD, you put:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
div.banner {color: black; font-size: 10px; margin: 1em 0 0 15px; padding: 0; border: 1px solid gray;
position: relative; background: white url(/keybd.jpg) bottom right no-repeat;}
div.banner h1 {color: #C99; font: bold italic 100px Times, "Times New Roman", TimesNR, serif; margin: 0; border-width: 0;
position: absolute; top: -10px; left: -15px;}
div.banner h2 {color: #303; font: bold 18px Arial, sans-serif; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0; border-width: 0;
position: absolute; top: 27px; left: 10px;}
div.banner span {color: #535; font: italic 9px/9px Verdana, sans-serif; border: 1px solid gray; border-width: 1px 0 0 1px;
position: absolute; bottom: 0; right: 0; margin: 0; padding: 2px 4px;
background-image: url(/whitescreen.gif);}
/* div.banner * {border: 1px solid gray !important;} */
-->
</style>
In the BODY, right at the top, you put:
<div class="banner" style="width: 328px; height: 73px;">
<h1>webmaster.net</h1>
<h2>Webmaster Resources</h2>
<span>Always remain cool, calm, and collected - like a shovel</span>
</div>
Clearly, you need to change the text and the graphic image to what you want, but it's a nice fast way to get something that doesn't look TOO cheesy and it WILL handle non-ASCII characters :)
Another big plus is that the text in the "logo" is seen by SE spiders :)
