Tips for making a tribe banner photo?
I'm hoping to upload a photo to my tribe's banner, but the pixel dimensions/restriction gave me pause. Does anyone have a success story or recommendations for making a banner from a photo? How did you get the pixel dimensions to work - photoshop?

You will probably have to use photoshop or similar software to get something with those exact dimensions. Also, make sure whatever you create is jpg. Snapzu converts all other formats to jpg and it tends to look worse that if you had just made it jpg in the first place. Honestly I feel like the resolution is way too small, so I've just opted to use the banner generator for nice solid colors.
Thanks. I agree that the resolution is tough to accomodate. I'm a little surprised that I couldn't find a how-to snap on the process. I'll look again and if I don't find one (and can figure out how to do it), maybe I'll make one. Too bad we can't upload and crop photos to fit in Snapzu, like we can with the cover images for snaps.
If nothing else is close at hand, there's always LunaPic.
I agree, please post this to /t/ideasforsnapzu.

It's up in /t/ideasforsnapzu (as a request) already, but thanks for making me aware of /t/snapzubanners! On my way there now.
Do the banner colors come in a color that not black white or gray?
Yeah you can input any hex color code for both the background and the patterns. You can also change their opacity.
I am feeling that pain. I've been trying to upload a bunch of suds for my tribe and I'm havign tough luck editing the picture to make it the right dimensions.
I guess I have to download a photo editing software if MSpaint can't handle the length (which it looks like it can't). Oh well. :/
