Title: Help Is Needed
Post by: michelly on October 12, 2010, 09:01:07 PM
So I had this posted on the main site and I'm not allowed to do that...ooops. I honestly didn't know I wasn't allowed to do that.

So this is what I need help with.

I would love to make banners for some of my stories. However, I do not have access to photoshop or any other  program that would help me make them.

So if any of you would be willing to make banners for me I will give you full credit for making them and I will (if you want) make you a character in a future story.

You're in luck, we have a list for such things ... http://absolutechaos.net/fictalk/index.php/topic,2168.0.html

I know there are some free Photoshop-like programs online.  I haven't used any of these myself, but check out this list; you might be able to play around and make your own banners for free.

I recommend Paint.NET for making banners!  It's really easy to use :)

I did say that i would make you characters in future stories if you wanted to be. So if you want to be, just let me know.

My friend uses Picnik and makes some really good stuff.  I use photoshop CS5 and could make banners, but mine are usually quite simple as I'm lazy!

I've never made a banner for myself before. picnik is a really good site to use though. It's really easy to use too.

I've never used it but my friend does.  I just stick to photoshop because that's what I know.
