    Creating a banner - tools?

    How do you create a banner?

    Which tools do you use for that?

    Are there any tutorials or is there maybe a banner-generating service online?

    I use Photoshop in combination with ImageReady. You can also try some simple tools like AnimationShop.

      Photoshop & ImageReady is the easiest method I've found. What I do is create each frame as a seperate GIF image in a folder (using Photoshop) then compile them into a full animation (using ImageReady's Import>Folder As Frames tool). I'm sure there are free services online that can animate simple text banners for you, but if you are considering banner graphics as an advertising medium your best bet would be to hire a designer who can create eye-catching graphics for you

        Thirded. Design in photoshop, and one button click takes everything into imageready for animation (assuming that you want an animated banner).

        One thing I have noticed though is that photoshop is really shitty at compressing files. If I save an image, open it in Irfanview and resave it with the same quality settings the new image is often less than half the size and looks identical, for both jpgs and gifs.
