banner has changed the visual landscape. "What is different?" asks the population, and it''s the banner. Bigger is better. Big banners can''t miss unless they are hung in the woods, inside, or in the unexposed alley between buildings. Big banners are simple. In fact, they work because they are simple. Single messages, simple words, and direct appeals keep the big banner accessible to the most causal passer-by. In a car, a driver or a passenger may zip by and still catch the new sale, the grand opening, or the brand-of-the-month. Exclamation point addicts can have a field day with big banners. Big banners are colorful. They offer a wonderful chance to jazz up a dull brick building or an aging structure. Colors rule in banners. They are king in big banners. The goal is to attract attention. They even generate excitement. Color is the key. Use a big banner''s color to contrast with the businesses usual color schemes.

As a new addition to the visual landscape, they are by their very nature a demonstration of something new. The bigger the new banner the bigger the sense of promotion. Bigger kameras is louder.
