I really like the Hive Stock Images community and I thoroughly enjoy sharing photos. Sharing my photos here for folk to use as they wish gives the images and scenes a life and meaning they might not otherwise have had - autumnal mindfulness, for example! Besides, my posts on HSI have done well and I am very grateful for all the votes and tips given by members, curators and the community at large 🙏.
I also enjoy creating artwork/wordart such as banners. Unlike a post of prior-shot photographs already in my collection which I can compile together in a relatively passive mood, I can only do creative stuff like this when I'm in a certain state of mind. This usually involves chilled music, weed and the company of my dog, Flame, whose presence is very relaxing.
Here therefore is some artwork related to the HSI community itself: 7 banners/footers with which Hive Stock Images can be promoted and publicised on blogposts. All the images below are sized to a width of 2000 pixels and are in the *png format - which means they support transparency, allowing the page background colour to show up behind the writing (with the first two images this is not a factor as such).
The banners are in three different styles, each style offered in 2 or 3 options. To encourage uptake of HSI promo material, I recommend that these kind of images be exempt from any sense of obligation to credit or compensate for their usage.
I hope you like 'em :D
