Step 1
-Making a banner
You can search the artwork forum for banner makers
Here are some i know of:
Me
Bezzella
If you would like to be added to this list post below or PM me!
If you would like to make your own open up an artwork program or download one.
Here are some good ones:
Adobe Photo Deluxe
GIMP
If you have any others please post below or PM me!
1. Open up you graphics program.
2. Choose a picture [use from a royalty free site or get permission from the photographer, but some people say if you change the art completely it becomes your own anyway!]
3. Tint/Hue the picture. Do you want it to feel warm? Tint orange, or pink. Do you want it to feel cold? Tint cyan, blue or green.
4. Sharpen, Blur, or pixelate. Sharpen for a clear effect, blur for an 'in motion' pic and pixelate if you want it to fuzzy.
5. Some programs you can make them partly translucent[lets some light through] which makes it stand out.
6. Cut it out using an eraser. Some programs you have an 'change background' option in which case you rubout the background and then selct the image...
7. Add a background to match the picture. A sharp background for a sharp picture. A blurry background for a blurry picture.
8. Add little 'extras'. Using the paint icon you can repaint some of the details and add hearts and such-like.
9. Add the text. Choose the colour to contrast to the background, and make the font readable. An 'outline' option works well.
10. Add your signature! No stealie! It can just say '(c) blah de blah de blah' or it can be a squiggle!
11. Convert to JPG
12. Upload in
www.picoodle.com/
www.tinypic.com/
www.photobucket.com/
www.imagethrust.com/
13. Choose the for websites option! And add the html to the layout, it is the one with <href> in front of it.
If you have any more tips post below or PM me!
Step 2
-Textboxes or scroll boxes
1. There are lots of different types of boxes, here are a few for you to try:
<table border="8" cellpadding="3" table bordercolor=#990099 cellspacing="5" width="624" table bgcolor=#CD69C9 height="100px"><tr><td><span style="position: relative; width: 750; height: 75; left: 0px; bottom: 0px; visibility: visible; overflow: auto;"><left>
<font color = "purple">
<font face = "Sand">
<h5><b>.blah.</b></h5>
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah

<br>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br>
<h5><b>.blah.</b></h5>

<table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" border="8"
bgcolor="Blue" id="shell" height="550" width="650">
<tr height="300"></td><td bgcolor="magenta">
<table title="Blah" id="content" border="8">
