Poor shot at a banner

Well, this is my first ever attempt at making a banner, its pretty poor in my opinion, I got a mental block on ideas for the design.

Any help on creating an ad banner would be nice. And comments to make that sucky @ss one better.

I can't see anything. Just a blank page.

EDIT: Oh, I have my Norton AntiSpam blocking it, I bet.

can ne one see it

I can't see it either, but it's the same reason as Dave. Change the file name from banner or advertisement to seomthing else, same w/ the page name.

OK changed it, new url, http://www.cuttingedgestudios.com/sample1.swf , its bigger than what its supposed to be because i just linked you to the swf instead of an html, id didnt publish an html, cuz it sucked to much.

Not sure where to start really, it doesn't resemble a banner and it doesn't attract my attention so that destroys it's purpose straight away. My only advice would be to check out www.bannersmall.com, see what all of their banners have in common, develop some of their ideas and integrate yours and keep practising.

it seemed like more of an intro movie than a banner :/
