I've also been finding that inserting code into web pages sends people's brains into a tailspin (I'm very familiar with that state myself), and there can be all sorts of complications. So, I'll create a few banners, and get back to you. Banners will be a lot simpler, and as anyone with half a brain knows, simple is good, to the extent of being immoral. Thanks for the feedback, Dave ---- On Sun, 13 Jun 2010 17:52:20 +1000 Joan De la Haye <[email protected]> wrote ---- > > Hi David, > > I put it on the Rebel e Publishers website. > But the reason it doesn't look good is the size.
