Official Bench Banner Add: Add a link to The Bench on your web page

[Mark Wing]

The official Bench Banner add is:

<img src="http://www.thebenchtrading.com/thebench/images/banner.gif" />

We encourage members to use it on their web pages. You can add it to your page by dropping in the following HTML code:

<a href="http://www.thebenchtrading.com/thebench/index.php?referrerid=***">
   <img src="http://thebenchtrading.com/thebench/images/banner.gif"></a>

If you want to get credit for referrals, change the *** to your Bench User ID (not your user name). You can get your Bench User ID from your profile. It is under Additional Information.

Thanks Mark. Seems to be working like a charm.

FYI, you can also post this to your eBay "About Me" page. This is the only part of the whole eBay site that you can make truely your own. They don't have restrictions on what you put there as long as it is in good taste (ie, no **** site links or excessive bad language). Just wanted to let everyone know. Because one more member here means one more chance they might be holding the cards you need.

Any thoughts in having a smaller one available too?

The spot I have for links to websites I frequent doesn't have the room for such a wide banner. 150px by 150px or less is ideal, it might allow for people to put a link to the bench in more places.

You can define a img size in the HTML code itself or you could copy the logo somewhere else and resize it and repoint the IMG SRC section of your HTML code.

Here is a great tutorial on the IMG tag..

While I wish it was as simple as that, it's not. The banner look horrid when crammed into 18px by 150px.

Point taken. Feel free to design one

I can't get this code to work on freewebs and can't find my Bench user ID on my profile.

If you go to your profile, your ID will be the last number in the URL.

Ok I got that part but the code still won't work.

If you go to your profile, your ID will be the last number in the URL.

copy/paste the HTML code into your website. Where you see "***" insert your Bench member number (2891).

Thanks for the help. That worked great.

Mike,
It looks like the HTML code in the original post above has a few extra back slashes "/" and spaces. I tried to correct the HTML, but it appears our vBulletin message board software is inserting slashes and spaces in error.

Here's link to the Bench banner HTML:

copy/paste the HTML code into your website. Where you see "***" insert your Bench member number (2891).

LMK how you make out.

Thanks Mark! It has been added to my site!!!

Nice banner. It actually is a nice looking add-on to the site and not distracting at all. A+

Anyone that adds this banner to their personal website, can submit a link exchange for our "links" page.

Silly question....where do I submit a link exchange?

Thanks
