Good evening! Here are a couple tips to help you when designing a new banner for your website.

  • Contrasting fonts make a great pair. If you can match at least one font in the banner to what is currently used on your website, even better.

  • For emphasis and impact, try bolding one word in your headline.

  • You can even use a rectangle behind your headline to offset it from your background image.

  • Determine where and how to align your text by looking for space with less noise in your background image.

  • Apply a colored tint to your image for design consistency.

  • Use one color consistently across all of the elements in your banner.

  • Or you can use colors from your background image and apply them to your text

  • Try putting a frame around your text.

  • Or try using a shape to contain your text.
