Creating an original and artistic web banner is fun and easy to do with GIMP 2.6. Of course there are a number of ways to do this, but most of them require artistic talent. However, GIMP has a tool called fractal explorer that will allow you to create web banners easily and requires absolutely no drawing or painting skills. With Fractal Explorer, all you need is some patience, since you may have to restart a number of times to get a design you like. This article explores using Fractal Explorer to create original, artistic web banners quickly and easily.

Open a blank banner in GIMP. Select NEW and then select the WEB BANNER template from the drop-down menu. There are two sizes; I selected the larger size for this article, but your size will really be decided by your overall website design
2Open the Fractal Explorer from the FILTERS/RENDER menu. Notice this is a COMPLEX tool with three tabs. The tool defaults to the PARAMETERS tab. As you change any of the sliders or FRACTAL type the preview of the painting will show in the preview window. After selecting your fractal design you can fine-tune the display using these controls.
3Click on the FRACTALS tab and select a design you like from the 30 available designs. I chose the snowflake design since winter is coming. Once you have adjusted the colors and parameters you can save your design as a new fractal so you will have it available for the future.
4After selecting your design, click on the COLORS tab to create the color for your web banner. Again, the overall design of your web page will help you choose the color you want. Use the sliders to get the colors you want. Change the sine and cosine functions to preview the impact on your design. If you want to save your design as a fractal, click on PARAMETERS and save the design. You can also now fine-tune your fractal as far as position, and when you have it the way you want it, click OK. The fractal is now saved in your blank web banner window.
5Use the GIMP text editor to add text to your design or any other GIMP tools to fine-tune and adjust your web banner. When you are done, save your file as a JPEG which you can then add to your web page as a banner.
6The final image is a web banner that was made in about 20 minutes. I'm sure with a little thought, experimentation and creative juice, we can all do better than this. Fractals are a simple way to make original artwork for a web banner, and GIMP makes it easy with multiple banner formats and a wide variety of controls to adjust color, text and backgrounds.
