Hello Wests Tigers fans. I am attempting to make a Wests Tigers/Luai related banner for 2025 and am an absolute newby. Has anyone got any experience in making banners? What materials are best to use? Grateful for any help.

I went to a Sydney test with a white sheet and in colourbond cottage green sprayed on “McGrath is Good, Warne is Great, but Lee is the one to Obliterate!!!”
I suggest keeping it short.
Welcome to the forum 93,
Are you talking a Run through Banner (AFL Style) or one that's held up on the Hill?
Appreciate your Passion for our Tigers.

Key Elements to Include:
- Team Colors: Use orange, black, and white prominently to represent the Wests Tigers.

- Slogan or Cheer: Add an impactful slogan like:
- "Go Wests Tigers!"
- "Roaring to Victory!"
- "Tigers Forever!"
- Player Names: Highlight favorite players or inspirational figures from the team.
- Graphics: Use tiger-themed imagery such as stripes, claws, or a roaring tiger.
Design Tips:
- Bold Fonts: Ensure text is clear and easy to read from a distance.
- High Contrast: Use contrasting colors (e.g., white text on an orange background).
- Durable Materials: If it's for an outdoor event, use waterproof materials like vinyl or laminated paper.

We have a banner pro here in Ink. 😁
It was the arvo before the test, we were well high, and probably a little drunk. Maybe not probably. And someone says we should make a banner!!! Fun times Ink.
The only time I’ve made a banner.

When ya finish your banner post a pic I’d love to see it, and we can all pick the eyes out of it like the New Jersey.
I love banner passion.

My mum had this huge roll of thick black material... Dad bought it at an auction where random crap was for sale... Dunno why they initially bought it but I inherited it.
I made a few for members here... The best was the "Doin it skando style" for Gr8-1.
It ended up over in Huddersfield with some of their fans after the mayor of minno went over to play there

WSTS93 - With AI and stuff - maybe the banner could talk - like this attachment - people would get it even if the spelling is different... Luai - Loui

I like that story. Both that ya Mum and Dad went to auctions to buy random stuff and came home with a roll of black material, (that’s pretty random), and the travelling banner, I wonder where that ended up? Somebody’s pool room for sure, maybe Skandos?

Also. If it is a run through banner - the material should be softer for the players to run through.

Depends on size and budget.
You might be surprised at how low the cost can be when you get a custom flag made. That will be light, professionally printed and come with the 2 sticks to hold it up. Check Aliexpress for custom flag. Pretty sure you can customise size too.
Compare that to a bed sheet and the paint, spray cans, and whatever else you will buy separately to DIY for a crappier end result.
I think the custom flag option out of China is going to be cheapest price and best result.

Appreciate the responses everyone. I’m thinking more of a printed version like this so may go with a reputable printing company.
