Re: Help Creating Banners
You have to make them. It sounds like you don't have Photoshop, so you could use MS Paint to make a simple, basic one.
After you've created your banner, upload it somewhere. You can upload it here, but I wouldn't recommend that because you'll get this annoying SpyroForum watermark in the corner. Upload here; you don't need an account.
After you upload your image, copy and paste the BBcode into your signature. It should look like this:
[img]image url[/img]Hit submit and there's your banner. 
Or, if you don't want to do that, you can have someone make one for you here. I'd be happy to make one for you if you'd like me to.

Re: Help Creating Banners
Yeah. Photoshop works, and there's always GIMP, which is free. Granted...Photoshop is better if you can get a copy. Well, if you ask me, that is.
Also, as indicated in the post above, there are several artists here who are willing to make signatures for othera people.

Re: Help Creating Banners
Meh. Not much can be done in MS Paint, and I don't know much about Photodraw. I think that GIMP is probably one of the better free softwares you can find out there. You can use layers, vectors, filters, and the like.
...That being said, I would pick Photoshop over GIMP any day, but that's because certain events have caused me to view it in a negative light.
