I need a bit of help with a banner for another site, so does anyone know any good sites I can use to make a banner without the risk of any laptop infections, meaning it's free and completely safe from Malware? I don't want any scam sites.

I can make you a banner, I use Photoshop and GIMP (Photo editing programs) Just give me good quality pictures (If you even want pictures, I suggest saving them as PNG. Files, instead of JPEG. files) But, if you want to make it yourself, I don't know any websites.

Just tell me what fonts you want on your banner, by going to:
www.DaFont.com
And I can install them. 😸

@Gagamonster15 Okay! 😃 But first, how do you upload a picture to PNG or JPEG? I don't wanna do a whole big process because I don't wanna get in trouble with my dad and also becsuse I'm very prone to Malware these days. >.>

Lol, just open the photo on Paint (If you have mac, whatever art program your computer comes with) and when you save it, it's already going to be at JPEG. there will be a scroll down arrow, and it'll show stuff like this (It's right under the pictures name):

GIF
PNG
JPEG
TIF

Press the PNG one, it improves quality. This DOESN'T give you a virus, if someone would give your computer a virus, I wouldn't even do it, and I do this often. 😱

@Gagamonster15 Does it work when you get pictures using the snipping tool on a computer? Cuz I kinda wanna find a picture of one of my eggcave creatures and use a pen thing to write my name on it. xD

gagamonster15 • 5 May 2011 at 9:19 PM

I don't know what you're talking about. D; Sorry. ☹️

thepells4 • 5 May 2011 at 9:22 PM

@Gagamonster15 Hmm... Well on my laptop, you know the button somewhere at the bottom of the screen to get to all the programs? There's somewhere I can go to click "snipping tools", and I click something on the screen and drag it to make a square, then I can save the picture and draw on it. 😱

Anything hat'll get your photo to your computer photo files that you can upload to a photo website will be good. 😱

thepells4 • 5 May 2011 at 9:26 PM

@Gagamonster15 Ok, I'll play with it a little. 😋

thepells4 • 5 May 2011 at 9:54 PM

@Redfire77 Hmm... I tried, but the code has the " thing in it that Eggcavern doesn't function with in codes. T.T

redfire77 • 5 May 2011 at 9:55 PM

@thepells4 oh, is the copy and paste thing html? you can just paste it here and I can turn it into bbcode for you 😸

thepells4 • 5 May 2011 at 9:56 PM

@Redfire77 Ok! 😃 So I need to make my banner all over again? xD

redfire77 • 5 May 2011 at 9:56 PM

@thepells4 no... didnt it give you a textbox with the code inside?

thepells4 • 5 May 2011 at 9:58 PM

@Redfire77 Yeah... But I closed out of the screen cuz my dad walked in my room. T.T Anyways, here's the new code:
