Use borders on your banners

Did you know that you can have borders on the banners you create here at Createbanner.com?

It’s really easy and you can add borders on all banner sizes. In the banner creator tool you just change “No border” to the size you want on your border:

Slelect the size of your border

One pixel is the smallest border you can have and 15 pixels the thickest border possible. When we use borders on banners we usually use just 1 or 2 pixels, but if you’re creating a big banner (for example 728×90) a thicker border could look nice. Since it’s so easy to change border size, we recommend you to try different sizes before you decide.

When you’re happy with the size of your border then it’s time to select a border color. Select the color you prefer in the color selector table by clicking on the desired color. As default the border color is black, but that may not always work out great depending on the background colors on your banner. Black may also be too dark for your banner.

Select a color

If you can’t find a color you like you can also write the HTML color code value directly into the text box to use that color instead. For some example color codes, please have a look at html.xaviermedia.com.

This is how the banner we’ve created during this tutorial using a 4 pixels border and #6699FF as border color:
