Must have the words "Budgerigars forum" in large legible font. and include the phrase: "a friendly and informative forum for budgerigar owners, breeders and exhibitors."

The lovely samwiseg 's banner tutorial is here -------> budgerigarsforum.proboards.com/thread/11110/banner-tutorial

C'mon kids. Dig through your archives for some past artistic creations if you aren't feeling the creative vibe right now. Winter is going to be awfully dull without something pretty to look at at the top of our page. Keeping Autumn at the top doesn't hold it off, apparently, if willowsmum's photos are anything to go by. mona, this is the sort of thing you might enjoy. Nudge, nudge, hint, hint. Seriously though, no pressure.

Haha.. I would love to try it out, with all the spare time I have..
I have never done it before.. I have used another application called Canva for designing instagram posts, office invitations, etc.. not sure if I can create a good quality banner with that. I'll give it a try though 🙈🤗

Loved designing this one too ❤ Here's my entry for a winter banner...
With our pretty birdies, our minds are programmed nicely. I had trouble placing the flying green budgie exactly above the fire. It kept disturbing me and I had to move the entire fire setup to the right! 😅 I'm assuming the cat and the birdies are friends.. That bothered me too, except the cute cat tail wagging! 😅🤣🙈 PS: I have converted the Gif image from my phone. It seems to be of low resolution. I'll check that out on the laptop tomorrow and replace this one with a better resolution, if possible.
