What is the best way to create
very simple basic 468 x 60 banners
which are small and quick to load?
Many thanks.

I assume you're not a graphics/guy/gal or you wouldn't be asking.

Ither use fireworks / golive and produce an animated gif (not too fancy
keep it simple)
Or use flash and make it fancy

Thanks,
I'm not after anything fancy at all,
just want to quickly knock them up in a
couple of minutes.
At the moment I have just used Word
and then copied and pasted in to Irfanview
example here,

As you will see though, quality is poor
and it is nearly 8k in size
Just want a way to do it nice and quickly and get
a reasonable quality at a small size.

You can use Adobe Photoshop or Macromedia Fireworks. I'm using
fireworks to design my banners...

Hello T.J.,
If you look at:-
http://www.mole-end-cottage.co.uk/Image1.gif
I knocked up something similar to your example using a very old
version of a well known paint type program. It took five minutes, and
is about 4.5kb in size.
If you want a copy of the program, you can drop me an email at:-
paint@mole-end-cottage.co.uk
and I'll email it to you - or alternatively a link to it, if I
can find one...

Thanks Will,
A friend knocked something similar up for
me using illustrator or something like that.
I dare say I have some old discs lying around
with something good enough on for what I need.
If not, he will just make them for me as and when
I need them.
Incidentally, do you want me to add your holiday
cottage in to my holiday cottages and guest houses
directory?
Just give me permission to use an image and a
description and I will do it for you.
Cheers

Hi T.J., I would be pleased for the cottage to be entered into
your directory :-)
You can use whichever photograph you feel is most suitable. I'm
not sure if you want me to do the description - I would guess that you
do! If you send me your email address to the email address of mine that
I quoted above, I'll forward something to you.
Cheers.
