Web banners

You may have noticed my snazzy new banner down below....

Just wondered how I turn this into one of those where you click it and it takes you to my web site?

I've done it for you. :approve:

Coincidently, the original banner size I sent you should fit perfectly on your website. The (background) colour was done to blend with your site. ;)

Another top bit of art and design from Shaun.

Well done that man!

Thanks Daz. ;)

Has Rice now got too many lines in his signature though? :whistle:

Many thanks Shaun.

However, I did wonder how I achieved this in general. Lets say someone asks for a link exchange and wants me to send them a banner, how do I get the banner to link to my site? It's easy for me to do as I just use my web design software to add a link to the picture, but I am aware that you can write a short piece of code that set the link up. Any idea how to do that?

I've no idea how to do that. I suppose it'd be simple piece of html code?. Alas, when it comes to anything 'HTML', I'm just simple :D

Marc will know. I'm sure he'll comment if he see's this topic.

Give people this code: -

<a href="http://www.revelationroadshow.co.uk" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.revelationroadshow.co.uk/images/web_banner.jpg" alt="The Revelation Roadshow" width="500" height="75" border="0"></a>

NOTES: This assumes you've called it web_banner.jpg and uploaded it to the images folder of your webspace at revelationroadshow.co.uk.

It also opens in a new window. Change the target="_blank" to target="_self" to open in the same window.

I feel so uneducated! Thanks a million Marc, when my feet touch the floor I'll give it a try
