About Graphic Designers

Graphic Designers are the people who create the images you see on the web, in the media, in magazines, newspapers, books, reports and other publications. However what were more interested in here are the designers that make logos, banners and other web graphics for millions of online businesses worldwide. If you have your very own business then you may have used a logo or web designer who produced your images on your site for you and your web promotion banners.

However, it is very common now for webmasters to create their very own graphic design with the use of image editing software such as Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro. Although graphic designs come all styles, the creation of new graphic design doesn't stop there. The overall look of a website can come down to the images and graphic work seen on the site and set the style and theme for the general look of a site. 

If you would like to learn more about graphic design or possibly create your own images for your site, then you should take a look at our Graphic Design Learning Centre at the bottom of this page, filled with information that may set you in the right direction. If you would like to use a graphic designer to make your a logo or a selection of banners then you may like to take a look at our Graphic Designers Directory below which lists designers in categories including banners and logo designs, templates, interactive media and more.

Graphic Design Questions & Answers


What is a Graphic Designer? Graphic designers create the overall layout and production design of magazines, newspapers and other publications. They are also responsible for producing the logos and advertising banners you see on websites.

Top Tips & Advice for Graphic designers


What Image Formats to Use: When you create images for the web you should save them as a gif file (CompuServe Graphics Interchange). This means you can save your images how you intended them to look for the web with high-quality, high resolution graphics.

Keep Your Banner Size Low: This same principle goes for your web banners either your 460x60 or larger sizes. It is recommended you try to keep the file size below 10k (10240) so that your advertising banners on other websites will download quickly for the person to see before they scroll away. If your banners is big in file size they may pass your banner location and visited another web page even before your banner downloads and never have a chance to see it.
