Pic Monkey is a free online photo editor.
There is a paid portion of it, but I have found that, although the paid features of
Pic Monkey
Pic Monkey
are great,
right now, I don't need them.
So, here's how to make a blog banner using pic monkey!
Trust me,
easy peasy!
Here you go! Go to PicMonkey!
At the top of the home page, you have choices,
1) Edit a photo
or
2) Create a collage.
Click on
Create a collage.
Click on
"Ducks in a Row."
This will give you a choice of templates for your banner.
I like the template that will allow you to import either 3 or 4 photos.
This time I chose a 3 photo template.
I clicked on open and imported 3 photos that I wanted to use.
At the bottom of the template, you'll see the size.
I change the size from 3000 x 1000 to
1200 x 400.
This fits my blog banner.
I clicked on the edit feature.
I changed the background color to a light orange.
Using this same screen, I rounded the corners of my photos and changed the spacing between the photos.
I again clicked on the edit button at the top of the page.
I wanted to add text.
I added the text:
For the Love of Beads,
and then I clicked the
Save
button.
A new screen came up.
I clicked on
Save to my computer.
My new banner collage,
saved to my computer.
See what I mean?
Easy Peasy!
