Need a banner ad for your small business’s e-commerce site? Maybe an eye-catching graphic to highlight a new product? Or perhaps you just want to give your family’s Web site some professional flair. For only $40, Banner Maker Pro gives you access to your own personal Web designer–virtually speaking, of course.

This easy-to-use program lets you create Web graphics of practically any size, shape, and color. Use your own digital images, or choose from a large selection of prefab graphics. You can animate your Web graphic using a simple one-click tool that lets you choose from a menu of effects, or follow step-by-step instructions to create your own animation from scratch. Banner Maker Pro generates the HTML, banner rotator, and mouse-over code needed for your Web site. It even includes a FTP function so you can upload your creations directly to a server.

The interface seems confusing at first, but read the handy prompts and quick tutorials and you’ll soon be creating Web graphics.

Banner Maker Pro would be useful for small businesses and home-office operations. Tech-savvy folks will likely also find it useful for their own Web sites.
