get me rewrite

After unsuccessfully searching for a website/blog specifically dedicated to the issues people like me, who edit and design online sports pages for newspaper websites, face on an everyday basis, I've decided to use this blog as a forum to discuss, critique, display designs and whatnot.

Further details as events warrant. Or when I can figure out how to get this stuff to work. But if you're an newspaper online sports editor/designer, let's chat.

Here's an example of a banner hed (.jpg) that a former co-worker put together for our Braves page online. She selected the photos, which I approved, but the overall design elements and chatter text are my concept. We currently use this design for all of our sports banners, which promo columnists, blogs, contests, special splash pages, etc:

… and the ultimate "less is more" concept I used for our Masters 2006 splash page banner:
