Blog Post Header Images - collection 1
Blog, Review, Photography January 24th, 2008

After I post “Does your blog make lemonade? Make your blog interesting with header images“, I have been using post header images on almost every posts on this blog. I believe that an interesting blog header image will give the post some nice vivid touch. It also gives the reader a better idea about the post. All of the images I used in my posts are either licensed by flickr.com or taken by me. I include all those third party photos under my favorites page.
In many cases, I modify the images and make them look even more interesting. I love photoshop, the best photo editing tool available in the digital world. I used a lot of tricks to enhance the photos, including retouching, burning, erasing unwanted spot, rearranging the objects in the photo, adjusting the contrast, adjusting brightness, setting auto color, setting auto level and many other modifications.
I will start a series of photo collections every month to list the images that I used in my blog post. This will give my reader a greater idea what my photography taste is. So enjoy the photos and remember to read my posts!

You make great selections!
Another thing that could be done is to have the header image randomly change, like Jon’s blog did. Each time you visit the site, or view different pages, the header image will change. Not sure if it’s a rotation or just a random selection, but it is an interesting idea and keeps the site looking fresh.

@DCR:
Yeah. Dynamic blog header image. I am a little hesitate to use blog header image. I guess that will be too many photos on my blogs to load. On the SEO side, my blog title is very important to get a great SERP. Unless you are using background image as your header image, you lost the great way to get your page on top of SERP.
My current blog title is in H1 tag, which according to Google webmaster guide line is very important.
At mean time, I am hoping some to redesign my blog.
