Easy Ways To Make Internet Graphics

July 04, 2010 By: Elliott Category: Graphics, Web Design

London Underground Sign saying GraphicsSometimes you just need a simple image to use for a web graphic or photo. Sometimes you don’t have the time or energy to make one from scratch. So here’s some of my favourite ways to make a quick graphic.

Says-It.com

This is one of my favourite “sign generator” sites. It has a wide range of signs, although very American in nature including Church Sign, Drinks Can, Concert Ticket and a brilliant Delivery Truck. I used their Danger Sign on the Broken Hearted page. There’s an amazing 200 (yes two hundred!!) symbols you can have on some of the signs.

Says-it is popular so sometimes the server needs a breather and you have to wait for your graphic but it’s well worth the wait.

Advert on a Bus

The atheists in the UK decided they wanted to advertise on a bus, someone created a brilliant advert on a bus generator! I haven’t found a practical use for the image yet. Enjoy, have fun.

(On a side note despite being a Christian, I do support their right to express their opinion, even if I think they are wrong)

Funny Error Message

Another great site with some fun signs including the simply brilliant error message generator and the Chinese take away sign.
