Pirate4×4.com

The Pirate4×4.com redesign is now finished. I wanted to come up with something really unique and something that fit Pirate’s image. I spent some time kicking around local junk yards looking for ideas. Just about every part of the layout was hacked together from real objects I found. One cool thing I like is the navigation menu I made out of an old Dana-Spicer Transfercase ID tag I came across.

For the header and footer graphics the main look I was after was an old green tool box. I started out by making a green gradient then overlaid different textures until I got the look I was after. I later came across some rivets on an airplane that I blended into the corners to round things off. To see how the header was drawn click here.
