I updated the "Link to Us" page, added NEW banners and the details for those who want to create custom banners for IHD. I would love it if some members wanted to contribute some banner designs for IHD. Or if you would like to have me design a custom banner for your site to match your theme, let me know. We can trade links. Help support IHD put a link on your website.

Here is the link: http://www.ihatedialysis.com/linktous.htm

So who is going to design the next IHD banner?

Any graphic program would work, as long as you can save the file as a .jpg or .gif  :thumbup; You would create a new file and choose a file size, remember to make the size similar to the ones on the "link to us" page. For example 468x60 is a very common "Web Standard".

I use an old version of Paint Shop Pro (5) but most people use Photo Shop which is much more expensive but oooh sooo sweeeet!  :clap; but since I don't have that I used what I do have :P

How is this?
I know I didn't do it from scratch but worked off your already exsisting banners .. but it was a thought  :-[

The invitation was open and I had to give it my best try.  Angie had a truly great banner idea and I took her idea to the next level and came up with this.  Note, it's in html form and has multiable links which all work.  The artwork is epomans but I shrank it to fit but only as a place holder image.  Other image ideas are still open.

My IHD banner idea

Epoman, if you want the source code, it's yours to do with as you please.  I only ask for credit, where credit is do.  ;)

PS:  Oops, can not upload zip file format so I have no choice but to link instead.  Please accept my apologies for upsetting the rules, if I have.  ihdbanner.zip



*EDIT* If you have seen this already, please download it again.  I have updated the code to make the links open in a new page and colored the text.

I guess I am a little slow when it comes to understanding how this works. I know I can
upload an image, but to make it clickable is different. The one I think would work well
is Image #3. Thank you, I appreciate the help.

This is how you make a clickable image on a web site, even works on myspace.

<a href="http://yourhost.com/images/filename.jpg"><img border=0 src="http://yourhost.com/images/filename.jpg"></a>

Hope that helps.

Hi Jeff,
So by doing that the image, when clicked, will take you to www.ihatedialysis.com ?
That's my objective, to link it, not just show the image location. Sorry, i am out of my league here, so maybe I am not understanding how it works.
Thanks,

No because Sandman's code was flawed. Here is the fixed code:

<a href="http://ihatedialysis.com"><img border=0 src="http://yourhost.com/images/filename.jpg"></a>

Now you have to change the image part so that the link is your banner and your banner has to be on the net not on your computer.

Also if you wanted the banner to not open the IHD page in the same window but in a NEW window it would be like this:

<a href="http://ihatedialysis.com" target="_blank"><img border=0 src="http://yourhost.com/images/filename.jpg"></a>

My code is not flawed.  The code was generic and in it's present form, would direct you to the image once clicked.  All karol would need to do is change the links to her likings.  But if you would like a viable code, something you can just copy and paste to your myspace, try this.....

This works great, but is too long for my liking. When added to my MySpace page, it spreads across too much of the page. Does anybody care to try to reformat it in a not so wide style. Less of a banner and more of a block version. I can make it smaller, but then it is not legible. :thx;
