Comment on POLL: Did You Like Our Use of Red Text in Precious Vessels…? by Nektarios

The use of this particular red is effective; it was a very good choice. The pagination is very good center left & right (I actually like it better than the traditional top & bottom). The use of red caps to introduce the Counsels of the Holy Elders is also a very good idea. Your book was extremely well designed & the self-wrappers was a good choice. May you be blessed to bring us more excellent & soul-filling works.

I like the 2nd example for color, although the intensity is rather overpowering. I like the last one for its size relative to the blog roll. Simple is better. Try to avoid the billboard effect of some of the larger sizes.

Hello!
In my opinion, you should use either the burgundy or white background (please, no yellow), and you should definitely use the circle around the Theotokos as the header looks a bit “disconnected” without it. Also, the font used for headers 7, 8, and 9 looks much more professional and clean-cut than the larger font of headers 3, 2, 5, and 6. Overall, my favorite is header number 7. It’s simple and memorable. I hope this helps.

I like the third one from the top and the last banner the best.

I don’t like the circle. It sticks out too much, and makes the Theotokos look removed from the text.

Otherwise, I like the first one (white background), or the third (red background), though I think the text should be black rather than gray.

Change the font to something more “liturgical” or “historical,” not sure what. Use a better icon, and have the icon overlap the box the masthead is in.
