It's that time again folks!
I'm sure it does not feel like it but Summer is fast approaching.
What we need is a Forum banner with a Summer-inspired theme, With the following criteria:
size: 1000 x 255 pixels
format: jpeg, jpg, png or gif
Must have the words "Budgerigars forum" in large legible letters.
and the phrase: "a friendly and informative forum for budgerigar owners, breeders and exhibitors."
Entries are limited to three (3) banners per person. Closing date is 20th of June 2015 with voting to commence the next day.
We look forward to seeing what you come up with!

I'd love to take part in this but 1)I only have Sky (does it need to be multiple budgies ?) and 2)I don't know how to make banners LOL. I tried on one website and it stretched/distorted the photo because of the size, no idea how to stop it from doing that  |

As for the mechanics, well as you can see from my banner... I have no clue!! |

I would say to anyone contemplating this venture, beware of using copyrighted material without the owners permission. The banner will be seen worldwide and there are some beady eyed viewers. Don't let the afore mentioned advice put anybody off. All I say is have a go. It is much easier than paper and paintbrushes.
