How can I add additional fonts to the program?

Banner Maker Pro for Flash uses the True-Type fonts that are currently installed on your computer. If you want to add more fonts, you just add more fonts to your computer. It's easy to do and there are several web sites devoted to fonts.

How can I add additional background images?

To add your own backgrounds to the list of backgrounds that appears on the backgrounds page, copy your backgrounds to the backgrounds directory specified in the Options. (The default directory is C:\Program Files\Banner Maker Pro for Flash\backgrounds.) The new backgrounds will appear in the list after the program has been re-started. The same process can be used to add your own images to the images directory.

How can I add my company logo, digital photo or other image?

Simply go to the Images tab, and click on Add Image. The image can be resized and made partially transparent.

How do I add the saved flash file to my web page?

The flash file (.swf extension) is added to a website by a small section of HTML code. Most web editors, such as MS FrontPage have a command to add a flash banner by a Add Flash Movie or Insert Flash File command. You will first need to move your flash file to your web server. Banner Maker Pro for Flash can also create the html code on the "Create HTML Link Code" on the Save tab.

Note: Adding a flash file (swf) is not the same as adding a image (gif or jpeg) to a webpage. The html code is different.

Do you have any tutorials?

Yes. Tutorials can be found here.

Where can I store my images if I do not have a website?

There are several websites that will store images for you. Two of the most popular are:

www.photobucket.com

www.imageshack.us

Note: Image Shack's terms of service do not allow you to host banner ads. However, if you are making buttons or logos, there should be no problem.
