Creating a Banner in your Blackboard Course
To set a banner, you need to have an image prepared in advance. Banners are displayed at the top of the Course Entry Point. Banners should be no larger than 1000 pixels wide, by 150 pixels tall and should be uploaded as a .gif or .jpg file. Banners larger than 1000x150 pixels take up too much space at the top of a page.
Banners and course cards can be a great way to personalize or add flair to your Blackboard course. They can also help you and your students easily differentiate one course from another. The same image is used as both your course card and your course banner, which creates a visual brand for your course.
Blackboard recommends that the size of banners be 480 X 80 pixels. Try out our Easy BannerMaker to create your own banner from one of our attractive templates. Enter your Blackboard course.
