Could someone please make a guide to banners?

Could someone here please make a simple step by step directions guide to making banners please?
Lots of people on here do not know how to make them. Myself included and can't enter banner making contests.

I could

How to make a banner:
1. Set your pixels.
Click on Resize:

Then uncheck Mantain aspect info and click the bullet pixels instead of percentage:

Change the pixel size to 816 horizontal and 299 vertical.
2. Make your picture!
Decorate it anyway you like!
3. Put it on babv-lovers.
Click on host an image button which is to the right of insert a table and to the left of insert an image. Hit browse and get it from your folder and then hit upload. Then hit the middle copy button which will insert the image. The url will be highlighted copy and paste it onto your post.

Hope i helped!

Wat i do is, I find a piccy I like as a background-copy it and paste it on PAINT.
Then, I copy and paste all the pics I want on it and put them on there. (:
