I need someone's help!!?

Question

Ok, first I don't even think I'm in the right category. Second, does ANYONE know how you make banners on the computer? I don't really know how to be anymore specific. Do you need a special type of computer or software or something like that? PLEASE HELP ME!!! Try to put it in the simplist form you can cause I'm kinda slow and not all that smart. XD Thanks again!

P.S. The person with the best answer will get 10 points! And lots of thanks from me. ^^

Answer 1

Well let me try...

You need a photo editor, but you might be able to use the paint or image program that comes with your operating system.

But your question makes me think that you'd like to see this banner deployed somewhere. Could you tell us where you intend to use it, or how you got the idea? These details might help us figure out what you are trying to say.

Answer 2

Generally banners are gif files that are 468x60 in size. you can make those with Paint in your Microsoft Windows - Start - Programs - Accessories. It has a decent help file to get you started.

However if you are intending to do the nice animated banners, the supreme tool of choice is Macromedia.com's Flash. There are some lighter weight tools like Swish that can do it, but far less powerful.

Macromedia Flash will require some good training for you to be effective with it. But then it will be awesome in enabling you to create.
