I like to fool around with graphics.

I’m no expert. I’ve had Photoshop 7, Paint Shop Pro, and Gimp. Right now, I’m still trying to figure out Photoshop Elements 6. What can I say?

Still, I need things like banners and buttons for my website(s), and sometimes I want to create a little something to use as a comment graphic for a social networking site. So, what do I always go to first?

I have a favorite program that I originally downloaded about 3 years ago. Come what may, I always find myself clicking the desktop icon for Banner Maker Pro.

Now, don’t get me completely wrong here. It’s not the only program on the planet. I also use a couple of others that I’ve found useful and convenient. But Banner Maker Pro does a great job on all the basics, and it’s very easy to use. It creates static banners, buttons and logos. It creates animated .gif’s, either using frame-by-frame techniques or using built-in animations — your choice. It keeps your creations on file in a format that you can open and re-edit, or re-create from the ground up. It has a selection of built-in backgrounds, or you can choose your own from your files. Add images, fonts, gradients… well, you get the idea.

I’ve found Banner Maker Pro to be extremely versatile and very useful for day-to-day quick graphics creation. It’s an excellent utility that belongs in your arsenal.

Try it out for yourself.
