Default Re: Who hired the 6th Grader?

The purpose of the graphic isn't to look good but to get your attention. So I guess our sixth grader just made it to junior high.

I was more concerned about the aweful white jaggy lines around the text. Tell your 6th grader to use the same background color for the text as the banner it's going to show up in. Using a white or transparent background results in the white jaggies as shown above.

And you can use a green background to get attention - it just doesn't have to be neon green. Go copy the green color used for Dell's add to cart button. Any company that does $20,000,000 in sales per day off their website probably does some usability color studies.
