Create an All-Purpose Advertisement Banner

Make an universal banner in a few minutes

In this tutorial you will learn how to create an advertisement banner in a few easy steps. Stelian Subotin will take you through the process of creating a banner from scratch in a few minutes. He’ll do his best to make it for general purpose so you could use it to advertise almost any project of yours. So lets get started.

 

One of the most basic and common size for ad banners is: 300x250px. Open Adobe Photoshop and create a new document that’s larger than that. I’ve used a simple grunge texture on gray for the background. By using the Rectangle Tool (U), create a dark gray rectangle. As Stelian Subotin said, the rectangle must be 300×250 pixels. Apply an Outer Glow effect to it (#343434). Apply an Inner Glow effect as well. Even if it looks blurry at the moment, the inner glow will be a nice touch to our rectangle when we finish it. He will apply a seamless (transparent) pattern to his shape. He want it to be barely visible, that’s why He has set the blend mode to: Soft Light and the opacity to 5 percent.
