    I would recommend Animate CC for web banners. You can even include ad network specific code within them.

    I think for good banner you need a flair for the design primarily. My studio Adsspirit creates everything from static to responsive animated HTML5 web banners. Mostly i used Adobe animate and Google web designer. you can check my website www.adsspirit.com/

    Photoshop is what I use or Edge... there are a lot of great tutorials for Photoshop but almost nothing for Edge because Adobe has Animate CC now

    for web banner, HTML5 or FLASH would be the best option, even you can create gif which is more flexible option in a web banner. i have a WordPress blog which based on tourism, basically, target and post on places to visit in Mumbai, i am also working on the banner and prefer GIF which is light in weight and better for on-page SEO also.

    Animate CC is better but a powerful alternative for creation of GIF & WebP is Animated Banner Maker from PCWinSoft. I won't publish links. I don't want Adobe to think I am spamming. So look it up. What I can tell is that it uses vectorial frame-by-frame layer-by-layer technology similar to Adobe Animate and you can change position, size, transparency, rotation, and colors between frames. The program works with symbols like Adobe Animate and symbols can be text, image, and polygons such as rectangles, round rectangles, ellipses, and triangles.

    ime Edge is aimed at web designers who want some control not companies making google adds... the right tool for the job = be clear about what you need done.

    I would recommend Edge Animate CC for web banners. Canvas is still not recommended. It is slow for most users.

    As Animate CC creates the animation using html5 canvas and javascript, then how can using canvas be slower than what is created with Animate CC?

    Because Animate CC use Canvas and GPU and Edge Animate use DOM and CPU. Better GPU which is needed for optimal rendering Canvas are using only designers, developers, gamers etc. For optimal rendering of DOM animation is OK normal CPU.

    I downloaded Animate CC and I tried to import PNG images and it just gave me a a blue square box, was trying to create a 728x90 banner I am really a beginner a newbie if you will lol, Just want to try making some animated banners, it would be nice to have different animated styles but for now I can go with whatever preset animation there are.

    So what is better for me as a Newbie, Photoshop or Animate CC,

    also would like to know if there are any video tutorials out there to help me learn

    Thanks really appreciate the help and feedback.

    This discussion is a little to long to be re-directed to a specific forum, but I would suggest that asking in both forums for 'best learning' resources for what you wish to do is the recommended course of action at this point.

    For PhotoShop - https://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop/content

    For CC Animate - https://forums.adobe.com/community/animate/animate_general/content?filterID=contentstatus[published]~objecttype~objecttype[thread]

    I'm trying to learn how to create png, html5, and gif banners. Similar to the ones on this page Explore Our Professional Banner Designs | Smartketer . My question is can I just use one adobe software to create banners of all 3 formats or do I need to use more than one? I've heard animate cc is good for html5 but I doubt you can create static png banners with animate cc. I just want to know before I take the time to learn. I need some sold advice on this.

    You''ll likely find that there isn't a one-size fits all application. While Animate can create all 3 formats you've asked about as you work with or collaborate with other designers you'll be expected to know your way around Photoshop. Most digital designers are fluent in 3 or more applications in a broad sense and have expertise in at least one.

    The good news with Adobe applications is that many of the principles that you learn in one app will carry over to others.


    My main purpose is to create banner ads for digital health companies in all 3 formats. Nothing else. Just banner ads only. So I would still need to learn more than one software? What's the point if animate can do all 3? Also, I keep hearing that photoshop and indesign are best for banner ads so I'm still a little confused there. I can understand that there's not a one size fits all for web design in general, but if I am specifically only doing web banner ads then I would think I would only need one type of software. But thanks for you guys help.
