Introduction
With this tutorial you will be able to make great 468x60 Advertising Banners!

Step 1
Open up a large wallpaper, or get one from here. Select your Rectangle Marquee Tool and make a fixed size of 466x58, and copy. This is so we can add a stroke to it in an easier way. As you can see I have used a different wallpaper:


Step 2
Now make a new document 468x60 pixels and paste. You should now have the image you copied in the centre with a 1px size on every side. Now select your banner image and go to {Layer » Layer Style » Blending Options » Stroke} and make the background black and stroke line 1px, click ok. You will now see that you have an outline to your banner. Look at the image below:


Step 3
You can always change the Hue/Saturation of it, simply holding down {CTRL+U}. Tick the box which says colourize and make it any colour you want. I have changed it to a nice light blue colour:


Step 4
Now you can add any text you would like to add!
