Wow, Rose! They do have some neat banners! I knew there were other things you could do at the site, but I hadn't had time to check it out. You are right, there is a banner generator there where you can create some really neat banners! Just so no one will miss it, here's a link straight to the banner maker: view link www.imagechef.com/ic/banner/

Thanks to all you folks for the great links. I'll get them in the Studio links file soon - I hope!

Have Fun!

I love that banner, Kar57! You did good! Thanks! And thanks for giving us the tip about imagechef, Roseart!

I've got these sites added to the Studio Links file (Index). Just need to get it uploaded. I've also added a section - Graphic Editors with Some Easy Fun Effects - so we can find these fun sites easy! Now I need to check to be sure I didn't leave any out! If you think of one I missed, don't hesitate to let me know! If any of you have another site you like, just post away!
