I redid the banners for my EDTexweblog and Puttering weblogs this week. I had a professional redo the federal court weblog and he used a banner than was much wider and simpler, and I liked the way that looked, so I tried to do that with the Puttering banner as well. It's wider but I kept some height so it's not just a shelf detail. It took a while to get the lettering superimposed in a way that I thought looked okay, but I finally got it the way I wanted it. I'm still not happy with the grainy nature of the lettering, but it'll do for now.
