Make a professional advertisement for your site

You have a website/forum/blog and you need a good advertisement that would attract visitors, one of the good solutions is banners. There are professional banner design teams but it has to be paid for. There are also paid programs. But now you can make a professional banner without any knowledge in design and coding and it's completely free.

Only recently, with the release of version 3, Vectorian Giotto lost the status of a commercial, paid program, and thus became available to the general public. Fortunately, only the price left the program, while the complete set of very professional tools and possibilities remained unchanged.

It is a visual content editor, based on the timeline approach to creating animations. In addition to an impressive set of built-in tools, you also have a considerable number of pre-created templates and effects, which you can quickly and easily customize to your own needs.

The author team itself states that this tool is intended for designers, not developers. Although the easy-to-understand and simple interface are cited as one of the main advantages of Giotto, such statements should be taken with a dose of the reserve, as it is clear that a program of such capabilities cannot have a trivial design. Any similarity in the layout of the program with Adobe Flash is intentional, and if you have at least a little experience with the Adobe solution, Giotto will be easy to understand from the beginning, with a similar set of tools in the expected locations.

With powerful drawing tools, sophisticated shape morphing, support for scripting, and adding sound, it is possible to create very professional Flash animations in a short time. In addition, the program supports working with layers, while the animation works on the so-called. "Motion tween" principle, where you specify only the initial and final state of the object, while the program does the rest.

A program that is definitely worth a try, you can download it completely free.
