Most of my headers are really basic. Just the title, description and maybe a search form on the right.

@strife – that i like

@kenny – eh, so you have an issue with him? this is not the place for you to post hate content ya know.

@LYC – i also prefer less scrolling………. and big header area mean I have to dress it up nicely, which takes time. however in some sites, you see big header areas with a lot of white space – so minimalism + huge header area is possible, just need someone to get it tastefully done.

Hmm… Personally, I prefer less scrolling. Those tall header with fancy design required a lot of loading, could be annoying with slow internet connection.

quite an interesting article there. those artistry fellas sure go to great lengths to create their headers.

the norm for gamer sites that i’ve seen and tend to lean towards is a minimalist concept, with everything smashed together as tightly as possible. at that point, maximizing readibility becomes key, while balancing it the absolute minimalist approach. all i can say its, its a real headache
