    Default Quick question about forum banners

    I've seen a few really nice looking sig file banners, where can I get more information on how to make them?

    Hi Ken, The Sig banners are one of the perks of being a Gold Member. Once a Gold member, you can design your own sig image or talk with Guntruck about making you one similar to the location based images many of the members display.

    Any other questions, just let me know.

    Ken,
    Thanks for asking about the banners. Waaayyy past time I did one up for myself.

    Ken,
    I downloaded a few of the "standard" banners. Then, using Photoshop, copied the format as best I could, and tailored it to my preferences. Good outline maps of the craggy BC coast and islands was a pain, and a decent picture of the Burgess-Dunne was a bust. Good thing that I did this at 72 ppi. Format seems to be 528 x 100 ppi, BTW. Not sure about the resolution, but my crappy graphics helped with that decision.

    Mike, if you can open a Photoshop layered file, I can send you the master for the old style sigs.

    Keith,
    I have the Photoshop CS6 (64-bit) Full Version. That's what I have been using to do cards. Very easy to do versions of color schemes, once all the layers are done.

    I'd be happy to have the base files. The maps, too. Then I could do up banners for members.

    Mike, I just sent you an email with the file... its 5MB, so let me know if it does not make it through.
