Hey guys, I made this banner for my server. Tell me what you think. I changed up my forum link so it wouldn’t be considered advertising :rolleyes:
Animated Banner
Too much going on in the background, imo
I just liked the color scheme of the background.
^ and in my opinion you could fix it by lightly desaturating the background image.
Im wondering how to one like yours
I’ve been making gifs for awhile and you just have to experiment with different settings on your program and see what kind of animations you can use.
For the “fly-in” effect, I simply used the motion blur effect and changed the direction of the blue to make it look as if it were flying into scene.
Fading is an extremely useful and good looking effect to use. Just take the text and raise/lower the opacity of it about 10% each frame in order to make it look smooth. Just keep working with different effects on your program and see what you can make.
If you get decent at making animated banners, you can make some money off of it on different sites 
That’s what I do.
Ok thanks I will try that
