very helpful

Thx a lot, this was very helpful! Once I was also in favour of using artistic fonts and lively styling, but now thanks to your tips I succeeded even more with simple fonts and appropriate styling. I integrated a gentle colour gradient in the background so it has a little steresocopic effect. According to the feedback of my audience, they liked best that the catchwords where written in a different font colour. I think it's a real eye-catcher
