Banners

Banners are what makes me decide whether or not to play the game. A good banner makes me think of a good webmaster. Here are some tips which you can use to enhance your banners and to fool more people into joining your game (only joking!) 

  1. Appropriate size - Too big will load forever and take up too much space. Too small ... what's the point of having a banner if you cant see it??

  2. Colour scheme - should fit with your background and text

  3. Pictures - Should be relevant

  4. Avoid big white spaces which could be filled with pictures - if you have white spaces cut down the size of your banner

  5. Writing - should be large so it can be read. And kept to a minimum - the game name and slogan nothing else. Otherwise it becomes cramped

  6. Creativity - Play on words. IF you are called Stars Hollow have a dark banner with a black horse with a star in it's eye, or in the sky, or on it's rump... the possibilities are endless

  7. Most importantly - Your banner sells your game. Make it fun and inviting and interesting to look at.
