Probably easiest thing would be to upload it to your site and send the link to one of the Admin via a PM. wink.gif There is a standard size. Best I've found with searching the forums is 573 x 125 pixels (these are rather old posts!). I think it is considerably wider than that now. Gabbing the current one shows its 756 x 150. I think you'll be fine just rounding it down to 750 x 150. wink.gif I'll look in the innards of the TS prefs for a confirmed size... wink.gif

Banner size is 750x150 (and that's the size of the fungi banner - not sure how Xabd got 756?). You should send it to Krissel as she handles the banners. If you need her email address, drop me a pm and I'll get it to you.

PM access is available by clicking the member name on any post that member has an entry.

I simply dragged the image onto my deaktop and opened it in Elements. The reason I saw "756" is because I needed my glasses! blush-anim-cl.gif And I even looked at it twice!!! Once with each eye! wacko.gif

It seems this info should be easily available somewhere, the "573" figure came from two different and rather old posts! I think it's obvious, even without glasses, that the banners are more than ~600 pixels wide. Perhaps in much earlier software they were nearly half the current size?

Voila!  Frances banner is posted. smile.gif

Older forum software required smaller banners. If the submitted banner is a few pixels over it will be shrunk to fit but the 750 x 150 is optimum.
