If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Hey guys,

    I recently made a blog and am looking to make some banners but I never have before. Can anybody recommend some tips on making them? It would nice just to get some basic ones but I'd love to do some really unique ones too. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    First you need a program to make them. It can be: Photoshop, Gimp, PaintShopPro or any other drawing program

    After you get your program Google tutorials and there will be thousands and then start practicing. Basic stuff can be learned fairly quickly but the unique ones will take some time.

    I'll look into the programs. Which one of them is best for using the free version?

    Thanks
