Creating graphics for your website or for any printed work seems like a daunting task but its not as difficult as it first looks and with a little practice you can create stunning graphics with just a few clicks of your mouse.

I use Adobe for all my editing needs and a lot of computers these days come with it already installed and you can learn the basics within just a few minutes.

If you have never created your own grapic before then its mostly just a case of pointing and clicking your mouse and you only need to get used to the following three basic things to create good looking graphics.

1: Formatting the text

2: Deciding on your font

3: What Layer Style you want

I am now going to show you how to create a cool looking header for your website.

1: Locate adobe editor on your computer

2: Top left of page click on "new"

3: write "what a cool header"

4: Highlight "what a cool header" and click on font. Change the font to whatever you like.

5: click on "layers" in the menu bar and choose something that you like.

6: Highlight text {last time now} and then simply resize to what you want.

And there you have it....a cool header for your website. There are obviously plenty of other things that can be done to further enhance your graphics such as adding multiple layers to your text to create a totally different look.

As you can see there are no complicated skills involved and over time you will be able to create any number of killer graphics for your website.
