When you release the mouse, the banner will appear in color. If
the banner is not where you want it, you can move your cursor on top of

banner until it turns into a four-headed arrow, and then you can click
and drag to move it. You can also resize it by dragging on the
white
squares. By clicking and dragging on the yellow diamonds you can
