Ferrari Header - First impressions count

Ok the Blog Blond reviewed my site this weekend and has pointed out that my site needs a make over.  She says that my quote is wordy and who’s wants the boring fence feeling and that I could get much more attention by adding a Ferrari to my header since I have one available to use.  Supposedly people want to “view sexy, expensive cars–not chain link fences with the impending sense of doom attached to cliffs.” 

What was I thinking she’s right no one wants a picture and quote with meaning behind it.  Everyone wants the greener grass on the other side of the fence so why not just put it on the header and give the people what they want.  The Ferrari a dream sports car for most and you can have it for a day just as my wife and I did for a day at a price of around $800 plus $1 per mile over 100 miles plus tax. I loved every minute of it to include; driving to the front of the Bellagio and having the valet take the car and the sound of the engine when they brought the car back to us,  the drive through red rock and when we out ran a Porsche, and last but not least our drive done the Vegas strip.    

He would bring a LOT more attention to his blog were he to take down the header with the photo of the fence and the subtitle which is too wordy and confusing, “Life’s Boundaries Greener Grass or Unexpected Cliffs”. Who wants the fence feeling? Not me! I prefer the red Ferrari.

When I first set out to complete this task I thought it would be easy to just format the picture for 809 x 190 and then up load it.  This was not the case at all I spent a few hours trying several different ways to get this picture to format into this horrific format size.  So do I just give up?  I wanted to but I did not I ended up formatting the picture to 500 x 225 or so then I used both adobe and paint brush to manually copy and past in scenery and road  to fill the requirement of 309 more in width.  End result in my opinion I did quite well in the digital imagery department. What do you think?  Hopefully this will give an excellent first impression that will keep you coming back my way.
