Banners
From EtsyWiki
Banners must be 760 x 100 pixels for best results. To upload a banner to your shop, click on "Your Etsy", select "Appearance" under Shop Setup on the left-hand menu. You'll be given a place to upload your banner. JPG, GIF, and PNG formats are accepted.
Banners can be created using many different programs. A few do-it-yourself tutorials for different graphic programs have been added below. If you're feeling graphic design-impaired, there are many Etsy members who offer banner design work in their shops.
