garaughty, blog headers series 2

 

 As I promised last week, here is the next group of images that I'm making available to the Active Rain community to use as backgrounds with the new AR outside blogs.

 This is the second in a series of blog header graphics. In the coming weeks I'll be adding more images in various colors, textures and styles. If you have ideas, suggestions, requests... let me know and I'll keep them in mind when designing the next batch.

 

And YES, these images are FREE to use on your Active Rain blogs.

 This is just a sample of things to come. The header graphics will range in style from art and textures to company specific graphics(when possible).

Nice work, marti - I'm partial to moonlight #1.  BTW - do you show your work in any galleries?

07/16/2008 11:15 PM by Kent Simpson REALTOR®, CNS®, AHS®, RECS® (with The Pepper Group™ Diversified Real Estate)


marti......you rock!   you are the best.  hummm i just need to figue out which one will work for me.

07/16/2008 11:51 PM by Pam Winterbauer ~ 2006 REALTOR® of the Year (Windermere Welcome Home)


Oh my goodness,marti! Those are gorgeous! You did a beautiful job with the KW ones and your moonlights look surreal.

07/17/2008 12:15 AM by Linda Scanlan (A Fan of AR)


Kent... thx, you have great taste, I loved that one as well. Yes my abstract paintings are exhibited across the world. I sort of have 3 full time careers going on. I think I have attention deficit disorder. ;-)

07/17/2008 01:01 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Pam... hi and thx, if I get feedback or requests from Windermere I'll probably do a header for their agents as well. So far the response has been positive from everyone I spoke with. Nite!

07/17/2008 01:11 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Linda... hi and thx, I'm trying to mix things up and have some variety in each group. The ones I'm doing for the RE firms have to stay pretty much true to their colors and brand/logo but at least these look better than their flat, generic stuff so we're all happy. ;-)

07/17/2008 01:15 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Thanks for sharing. They look wonderful.

07/17/2008 01:22 AM by Trey Affolter (Keller Williams Realty)


Marti: that's great of you to go out there and put these together... I particularly like the KW one in red w/the white text and the one titled moonlight 1.

Keep creating Marti...you're an artist (but you probably already knew that). :-)

07/17/2008 01:35 AM by Ricardo Bueno - Mortgage Planner (World Wide Credit Corporation)


Trey... thx, if the KW agents like them them I'm happy too. Nite.

 

07/17/2008 01:52 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Ricardo... nice to see you in the Rain and thx for the feedback. Best of luck with your new blog, I subscribed in my RSS reader so I'll be by again soon.

07/17/2008 01:56 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Marti, Once again, you prove yourself as the creative genius. I love the red sphere! Put me on your waiting list for a 2nd book cover. The first is sure to be a big smash hit!

07/17/2008 05:41 AM by Margaret Rome- Baltimore, Md.-HomeRome.com (TREC-Sell Your Home With Margaret Rome)


Wow - these are really creative and beautiful!  Would love to see a USA-inspired one for those who specialize in working with the military.

07/17/2008 05:49 AM by Tina Merritt - Virginia Beach Real Estate (Long & Foster Oceanfront - Virginia Tech Hokie)


Thanks for sharing - I just have to figure out how to use them now - Have a great day and I will watch for more info from you!

07/17/2008 06:20 AM by Norma J. Elkins (Coldwell Banker Realty House)


Marti great job with all these new blog headers you are creating!

07/17/2008 07:15 AM by Bill Gassett Metrowest Massachusetts Real Estate (RE/MAX Executive Realty)


Beautiful work Marti!  If I wasn't in real estate, I would love creating graphic art like you do.

07/17/2008 08:21 AM by Kathy Anderson of KenMeadeRealty - Located in the heart of Sun City Grand (Ken Meade Realty)


Hi Marti,

These look great! Now I have no excuses to get to work on mine, Thanks! :)

07/17/2008 08:28 AM by Suzanne Sands-Somerset, MA Real Estate (Century 21 Associates Realty)


Susie... thx, glad you like them.

Margaret... looking forward to the 2nd book! You, Peg and I make a great team! Also check your email for the new blog header, I resent it yesterday.

07/17/2008 11:17 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Tina... great idea, I'll put that on my list, thx!

Norma... do an Active Rain search for outside blogs and you'll find a ton of info or look at some of my posts from the past few weeks for tutorials about using the blog header graphics.

07/17/2008 11:24 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Eleanor... thx, have a great day!

Bill... thx for the feedback as well.

 

07/17/2008 11:35 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Kathy... thx, it's definitely a fun way to make a living.

Suzanne... cool, more Century 21 stuff is in the works. Later...

07/17/2008 11:40 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Greetings...I'm enjoying the evolution of the blog headers that you are creating for everyone.

I realize every monitor is different, so this may or may not be an issue. But I wanted to pass along the offiical Keller Williams colors so your KW header color is accurate and consistent with other KW materials. The red is PMS 200, and the Gray is PMS 424.  Just thought I'd mention this.

07/17/2008 12:00 PM by Carol Clay, Broker/REALTOR Brevard NC Real Estate Specialist (Keller Williams Realty, Brevard, NC)


Marti, These are just gorgeous, I particularly like the color texture ones---the colors just flow into eachother.  Thank you!

07/17/2008 01:02 PM by Carole Provenzale Owner, Feng Shui Long Island & New York (Feng Shui Long Island & New York City)


Carol... hi and thx for the info. Because of the shading and 3 dimensional look of my graphics the color variations won't match the flat version of the standard KW logo color.

 

07/17/2008 01:02 PM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Carole... thx, I'm trying to add a variety of stuff, texture & colors in each new set of headers, just to keep things interesting as well as respond to the variety of requests I received.

07/17/2008 01:17 PM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


beautiful colors! I need to get busy this weekend and work on this!  Thanks, Leslie

07/17/2008 06:18 PM by Leslie Stewart – Realtor ®, CRS, eCertified (Prudential Real Estate Professionals)


Thanks marti - so very helpful as usual... now I have to decide... C-21, or one of the beautiful colored options... so many choices!  I love it!

07/17/2008 06:43 PM by Eva Armstrong - Environmental Visions (Environmental Visions)


Leslie... thx for the feedbac, glad you like them, more on the way!

07/17/2008 06:52 PM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Eva... I love how the C21 turned out, the dimension of it stands out. I'll probably do more of those in the coming weeks. Later...

07/17/2008 06:53 PM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Marti, really, really good stuff. If I send you my logo, can you do something with it for me? When you have time? I haven't gotten 'round to moving forward on my AR outside blog....;-)

07/17/2008 10:33 PM by Mesa, Arizona Real Estate *** Teri Ellis, Broker, ABR,CRS,GRI,ePRO,MRE (Homes Arizona Real Estate LLC)


Hi MArti,

So kind of you to offer these for free. Not much in life is free anymore :)

 

07/18/2008 01:20 AM by Beth Patnode, MN Home Staging Firm, Minnesota (Minnesota Home Staging Network~ MN's Top Home Staging Firm)


Teri... I looked at your AR blogs and your website, which logo are you talking about? Let me know and I can email you more info about my logo designs. Later T...

07/18/2008 01:42 PM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Beth... hi and thx, a lot of people are trying to do the headers themselves but don't have graphics to use so I thought this would help them get started.

07/18/2008 01:44 PM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Marti, the one with the house, the sun and the cactus that I sign off on my blogs....I don't even know if this is up your alley...wouldn't have to be THAT logo, but just the company name, "Homes Arizona Real Estate" kinda sorta like the C21, etc. ;-)  No big deal, just a thought since you were offering. ;-)

Pepper

07/18/2008 08:56 PM by Mesa, Arizona Real Estate *** Teri Ellis, Broker, ABR,CRS,GRI,ePRO,MRE (Homes Arizona Real Estate LLC)


I love the way Beth wrote your name: mARTi    There might just be a new logo for you to work on! You put the ART in the name!

07/18/2008 09:01 PM by Margaret Rome- Baltimore, Md.-HomeRome.com (TREC-Sell Your Home With Margaret Rome)


Teri... OK I see what you mean, I was looking at your blog and website and couldn't see the logo, I'm blonde and it's Friday so I have 2 good excuses. ;-) Will add Homes Arizona Real Estate to my project list and try to come up with something nice. Nite!

07/19/2008 12:53 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Margaret... what a cool idea, you're the creative genius! Thx my friend...

07/20/2008 08:00 AM by Lake Norman Real Estate ~ Diane Aurit (RE/MAX at the Lake)

07/20/2008 08:47 AM by Margaret Rome- Baltimore, Md.-HomeRome.com (TREC-Sell Your Home With Margaret Rome)


Diane... thx. isn't Beth's/Margaret's idea cool.

07/20/2008 11:42 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Margaret... thx for pointing out what I couldn't see. I'm not always the sharpest pencil in the box. I'm glad I have friends like you to watch out for me. ;-)

07/20/2008 11:50 AM by The Blog Artist - marti garaughty (The Art Of Marketing You)


Thanks for the header, I just saved it and am going to try it out now.
