Ha, a blink 182 fan. That's how I like it. Very Happy

Maybe it sounds stupid but I think you should change the text in your header and place him in the center. This way you can fill space without making it to busy.

blink are awesome Very Happy

My friend suggested somethign similar to that but then theres the problem of having a huge space but to the right of Tom (tom being the bigest person on the image who phrycux suggested of moving to the middle of the image) i have an idea in my head at the min which i`m about to try out hopefully it looks good

maybe you could make all three guys the same size (in between what size tom is now and what size the others are now) and put them all on the right then leave the faec on the left and make the text in the middle bigger so it fills the middle?

the idea i had didnt work out very well lol...

to benn that idea probably wont work to well because if i do it the text will probably take up about half of the image and the text will look silly cuz it`l be too big

In my opinion Benn has a very good solution. So if a big text looks silly, you could always try another font that fits to the rest of the design.

i like the guys on the right better like that... could you not move the text so its centered in between the guys and the face, and center it height wize as well rather then have it in the middle at the top...?

just a thought
