What Banner Maker Pro is
Banner Maker Pro is a Windows application for creating web graphics such as banner ads, Facebook banners, buttons, headers, animated GIFs, and logos. It saves finished images as GIF, JPEG, or PNG files. Users can set custom sizes and add images or logos, then crop, resize, and blend them with transparency. The software includes more than 120 one-step animations and over 800 backgrounds and standalone images. Text controls include borders, three types of shadows, angled or circular text, installed computer fonts, and Unicode support. For web publishing, it can generate HTML for placing a banner on a site, create a rotator with up to 10 images, and add mouse-over effects. The listed free plan is free and allows unlimited banner making without a watermark. The app requires Windows 10 or above and 12 MB of disk space. Facebook does not allow GIFs, so animated banners must be saved as PNG or JPEG for upload there. Help is available through in-program instructions, an F1 help file, FAQs, tutorials, and a contact page.
