Ivar?anybody else.
Let's say one has done a banner on photoshop and goes back to the smugmug account open the customization, cklick on control panel, orgNIZE & customize .......and can't find his/her banner location. According to the tutorial it says to go to your banner and click share????
Well if I go to my banner which is on photo shop how can I go and click the share button which is on smugmug??
Then on the same page it says HTML code. Do I have to do both the CSS and the HTML.
I probably sound like an idiot right now, but I sure it is temporary ha,ah,ha

    You need to add the div for your banner in the header code box and
    then some CSS defining and formating it. Below is a quick paste in of a
    clickable banner code. Look under it for a non-clickable banner.
    Also you have to upload your banner photo/file to your site and
    insert the link in the CSS below.

    Here's some generic code. It creates a clickable banner on your pages.
    Plug in your numbers and see if this works.

    The header code (not head tag box) Clickable banner.

    <div id="my_banner">
    <a href="http://nickname.smugmug.com">
    <img src="/img/spacer.gif" height="100" width="750" border="0" alt="">
    </a></div>

    Supporting CSS to define image and format banner

    #my_banner {
    width: 750px;
    height: 100px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background: url(/photos/xxxxxxxx-O.png) no-repeat;
    _background: none;
    _filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader (enabled=true, sizingmethod=image, src='/photos/xxxxxxxx-O.png');
    }

    Make the spacer gif the same size as your banner, it's the clickable area.

    ==== ====
    Here's another version generic code for a non-clickable banner.

    The header code Non-Clickable banner using png.

    <div id="my_banner"></div>

    Supporting CSS to define image and format banner

    #my_banner {
    width: 750px;
    height: 100px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background: url(/photos/xxxxxxxx-O.png) no-repeat;
    _background: none;
    _filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader (enabled=true, sizingmethod=image, src='/photos/xxxxxxxx-O.png');
    }

    ===== Note: For a transparent banner create a png and use above code =====

    Here's some generic code if you're using a jpg.

    The header code Non-Clickable banner using jpg.

    <div id="my_banner"></div>

    Supporting CSS to define image and format banner

    #my_banner {
    width: 750px;
    height: 100px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    background: url(/photos/xxxxxxxx-O.jpg) no-repeat;
    }
