Below is a video tutorial where I show how to modify premade banners/headers to produce good-looking graphics for your own site.

How to add text
How to add an "outline" to text (makes it much easier to read)
How to add a gradient to your text (adds color effects)
How to add a drop shadow
How to work with layers
How to "save as".

Master theses simple techniques and you can pump out appealing banners and headers quickly and easily.

If you have any questions or additions, please post below, but please do not quote this message. We don't need the video copied bunch of times. Thanks...
