Here is a topic for us to discuss over here. For all the established banner makers, and the new up and comers... I'm sure you didn't just wake up one morning and say hey let me make a Whitney banner today. What inspired you to decide to try your hand at making that first banner and then branching out to whatever level you are on today?

You guys. You guys and your sick banners. :P Seriously, I saw the great banners and wanted to be able to express my ideas as well, and I think I have gotten pretty good at it. :lol: The best inspiration in the world for me is when you guys bring great banners. It just gives me the drive to go into the studio and make something, like I am working on something now based on a certain thread on the BBS. ;)

WWEELLL, The thread it started from was the mashup thread. I was going to make a CD cover for "If I Were On My Own" in the style of "If I Were A Boy", but I ended up falling in love with the "Whitney" text logo, so I wanted a banner. I still plan to make a CD cover for it, though.

AND ON THE NOTE, we should all make a CD cover for each mashup. Like each one of us do a different mashup. Whatcha think? ^_^ Not really like a competition, just as something to pass the time and mess around with!

I like that idea... I'm down with that! That can be fun! Watch out Arista, we are creating our own damn CD, AND single covers! LOL!! All we need is someone to start selling them out the trunk of their car. :giggle:

To me, it was the beautiful banners of Whitney-Fan! the first time i saw those banners i was like a kid in a candy shop!
i was like "How do they do it?" they are so great!!! and also the unbelievable Whitney beauty.
One day i did some internet research to know how to make a banner and voilą!
