Hello. I was invited to place an ad on a website regarding my zazzle products, but it has to be 125 x 125. There is a 125 x 125 banner in the associate banner section, but I don't think I can create one with my own images. Does anyone know if there's another promotion link that I can copy and paste? Thanks.

Not sure what you mean. If you want one with your items displayed then your going to have to make it. The only banner links Zazzle supplies will direct any potential customers to either their main page or a section in the Market Place. Just use your image editor and make a 125x125 image to direct people to your store.

Here's one I did for a site that allowed me to put one there free of charge . . .



Doesn't have to be fancy or nimated for people to see it. Smile

Thank you for the information. I also sent an email to zazzle and they said if I can, to recode the HTML in order to insert my image. Therefore, a customer would be able to just click on my 125 x 125 banner to go directly to my gallery. I think I'll get my daughter who knows computers to help me with that! Any suggestions? Thanks.

This is the code for one of Zazzles 125x125 banners . . .

Code:
<a href="http://www.zazzle.com/custom/tshirts?rf=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><img src="http://asset.zcache.com/assets/graphics/_zletter/2009/banners/customtshirts/customtshirts_125x125.gif" alt="Custom T-Shirts" /></a>


Which would give you this image . . .



that's linked to Zazzles tshirt page.

To have someone click it and go to your store just replace the . . .

href="http://www.zazzle.com/custom/tshirts?rf=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

with . . .

href="http://www.zazzle.com/lovecolor?rf=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

where as the "xxxx"s would be replaced with your Associate ID number.

So it would look like this . . .

Code:
<a href="http://www.zazzle.com/lovecolor?rf=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"><img src="http://asset.zcache.com/assets/graphics/_zletter/2009/banners/customtshirts/customtshirts_125x125.gif" alt="Click To Visit TROPICAL & FLORAL ART & GIFTS!" /></a>


Go HERE to see what banners Zazzle has to offer.

Thanks, I'll do that! One more question. I'm actually going to use one of the 125 x 125 banners that say shop now. How do I change the text to say Surf Prints? Is there a customise button or can I also do this when changing the code? I really appreciate your help! Chris

I went and changes the info. as instructed, but it still isn't working. Do I also have to change the other text in the code to say exactly what I want, such as SURFBOARD/BEACH ART & MORE! Also, after you made your ad, did you just copy and paste your link to the website where you were placing the ad? Was the website where you placed the ad able to click on the ad and directly go to your gallery? Sorry, for all the questions! Thanks, Chris

What the banner looks like is what it looks like. There's nothing you can do to the code to change that. All the banner is is an image file, it's not editable. If you want a banner with your own info on it, you'll have to make one yourself. If you used the code I gave you it should have worked. I don't know where your trying to put it so I can't say if it needs to be edited to work there or not. Get in touch with the person/s that run the site and ask what they need for it to work on their site.
