Animated Graphics - Animated GIFs

Animated GIFs are simple animations of small file size to be quickly loaded. Banners are often animated to catch the attention of your site visitors. Please view our examples of banners. If you choose to swap banner advertisements with another web site, you will want a variety of styles, colors, and sizes. The standard full, half and button sizes are recommended. Each site will tell you what size they prefer. The colors should be in contrast to the color scheme of the site in which it is displayed, so it is more visible.

We will keep the original banner on file in case any changes are needed such as phone number or address change. Most banners will be started in Adobe Photoshop, finished in Image Ready, and saved both as a PSD and a GIF. Only the original PSD can be edited. If you try to edit an animated GIF saved as a GIF, then only one frame will be saved and it will no longer be animated. It is like trying to take a photograph of a motion picture. Only one image is captured.

Clip art may also be animated. Logos may be animated upon request, but unanimated versions are recommended for print advertising. We have a large quantity of royalty-free clip art available. If you want a custom animation, we can create it in several ways. Using Adobe Photoshop graphics software, using JavaScript code to swap images, even using Macromedia Flash. After you decide what you want, we will decide the best way to create it. Please contact us for more information. Thank you.
