If its a very simple page and you don't have a lot of code to contend with you can use Notepad. Now open up your page in notepad and you're going to see all of the code that displays things the way they're supposed to be shown for your visitors. You're going to be looking for the 'link' tag, its going to look something like this: Code: [copy] <a href="http://www.somewebsite.com">LINK</a> This code tells the browser that this is a link, and that it goes to someplace. The address of your website goes into the httP: part, and the text you display to your visitor is the LINK section. If you want to change what it says, simply change LINK to whatever it is that you want it to say. Now the second part, is very similar. What you're going to do is put an image in place of the link. You'll need to look for the image tag: Code: [copy] <IMG SRC="/images/yourgraphic"> What you want to do is change the "/images/yourgraphic/" to wherever it is that your picture is located. Check out some of the HTML tutorials on line to read a little bit more about the other tags and what they do. Welcome to the forums, no questions are dumb ones. :) (Copy Shortcut)

I have copied the image to to the proper folder so I can get it onto the page, and I can get the HTML code...just trying to figure out how to make them work together. The idea is to send the reader to another site via the banner (that may be obvious to the experienced people here, but thought I'd throw it in just in case...) (Copy Shortcut)

Code: [copy] <a href="the address of the other site"><img src="images/yourbanner" /></a> This way, you're transforming a picture into a link. Now, every time a user clicks on your banner he will be redirected to wherever you want him to be redirected ( the location of the page you declared here: <a href="the address of the other site">) (Copy Shortcut)
