Hey everyone!

I want to make some banners/buttons for other sites to use as a link to my site.

I know how to make the banners/buttons in word or paint, for example BUT i want to know how to include it in my html.

The way i make the banners/buttons is by taking a picture of the subject of the website and writing my name onto it.

Please help me i would be eternally grateful!!

Lots of love, Bridie xx

Well...I would suggest buying a Better Program For Graphics, but here is the html to link to your site without the others having to upload it to their directory

First, Make sure you're server allows image hosting

<a href="Your Site URL here "target="Your Target Here"><img src="Your image URL here" border="Leave 0 if you dont' want a border"></a>

When You Put The Coding Onto Your Website For Others To Link You, MAKE SURE You Use the non-html activation tags...
<xmp></xmp>

For Example...

<xmp> THE CODE YOU WANT UR AFFILIATES/LINKAGE TO USE GOES HERE </xmp>

Its really easy. First, you make the picture. Next, simply upload it to your website space through FTP or an uploader your host provides. Then, just put an <img src=""> tag in there with the file name linked in the tag and you're done! It should show up on your page. If it doesn't, make sure you have the right file name and type of file. Also, try just linking blah.gif, not http://geocities.com/yourname/blah.gif, because some hosts don't allow direct linking. :) Hope that Helps!
