Pick a Header, Any Header
Published
By Mr. C.
I'm pretty sure we've never held a poll on sidepodcast.com before, but now seems like as good a time as any to start one.
For the past six or seven weeks Dirty Scarab has very kindly been supplying a variety of headers for this site. The original plan was to run the images until the début of Sidepodcast 3.0, but we're still working on the redesign, so what we'd like to do in the meantime is find out which of the featured images is everybody's favourite and then stick with that one in until we're ready.
To jog your memory, they appeared in the following order:
Big, Bad, Logo
The one that started it all and my personal favourite (but don't let that sway you). Criticised initially for a lack of Formula imagery.

Blue and Green Heidfeld
The colours blended nicely with the background, and have you seen those lovely flip-ups and winglets?

Facing Mark
Mark Webber coming at ya. Displayed in appreciation of the man who took on an X-Trail but lost.

Last Year's Number 1
The red in this image contrasted wonderfully with the green background, but this divisive header split opinion.

Mello Yello
The fat nose of this year's Renault - striking and radiant as ever.

Electric Nick
We can't get enough BMW around these parts, and Nick brought the collection home it style.

Hopefully they all look familiar to you, now all you need do is cast your vote below:
Which site header do you prefer?
Last Year's Number 1 26% (20 votes)
Facing Mark 27% (21 votes)
Blue and Green Heidfeld 18% (14 votes)
Big, Bad, Logo 9% (7 votes)
Mello Yello 9% (7 votes)
Electric Nick 12% (9 votes)
Total voters: 78
We have to thank Scarab for injecting some much needed colour into the homepage these past few weeks. The old black and white picture feels very retro now, but interestingly images within posts seem stronger when they don't have to complete with header. Something to take into consideration for the future.
