Who needs Photoshop? I use BingBanners and their Online Design Center to get great "poster quotes" to inspire my students -- and students can show what they can do with what they learned by making posters

Click on the
ONLINE DESIGN CENTER
Here are the steps to making an excellent "poster quote" for social media.   The system at BingBanners.com is easy to learn and it trains students in how to save their work for later improvement.  
See the VIDEO
"Constant improvement" and "it takes time to make good wine" are supported by BingBanners.  The core of writing and learning how to communicate is being abve to re-write.  Rewriting happens when it's easy to get back to what we wrote yesterday.  BingBanners makes that EASY!.


Step 1:  Go to BingBanners.com

Here is the home page.
Click on the Design Center, located
under the upper left hand corner



click on BANNERS

I usually hit  VINYL BANNER

Click on the BRUSH next to STEP 4
Select the size of the banner under the colors


click on SET

SELECT the BACKGROUND color

Click on ADD TEXT (right side of the screen)

Type in the Text at TEXT LINE

Click on DESIGN to save the setup of your poster




Select the colors of the FONT

Select the FONT

Click on UPLOAD FILE to
add a photo

You can get the photo from
many sources


Remember to SAVE, SAVE, SAVE!   I've created over two dozen posters and I didn't buy them.  I just used the screen shot to share with friends.   Then I later ordered some of the posters if the clients liked the design.


Here's an example of a poster that one of my students designed.








I like this system so much, I created a video.
