Finished my Twitter Banner
11 years ago
General
After several hours of trying to get it just right, I got my banner just right. The initial problem was getting the dimensions, which are listed on Twitter as 1500 x 500. Now, that was okay, until it started cropping it weird, so my links were pretty much non-existent. So, I had to mess around more. Then, I noticed everything kind of looked stretched, especially on my desktop which has a 1080p monitor.
Finally, I had to redo everything in a higher resolution. If you're wondering what resolution you should make your Twitter banner, it's 1920 x 640. Also, a big shout out to Outlandish Studios, who let me use their art for the banner (I do have proper art attribution in the banner, so that probably helps). Also, I had to play around with the color of the text a bunch as the super dark gray looked really odd after taking a break, and thankfully there was an option to have the text almost the exact same gray as the t-shirt Oswald is wearing in the picture. That helped with theming (I am all about theming) of the overall image (same with the icon, which uses Oswald's dark brown and the light green from the background).
