                        Getting the day off to a good start:



                        Rick, I tried to download several of the hi-bandwidth movies, and they failed for me. I wanted to make some higher quality screencaps.

                        Thanks,

                              If any other designers are having a bitch of a time with the PLUMBINGS logo...



                              I recreated it pretty damn close. Not spot-on perfect, but at least it's on a transparent background. Layers are intact so PS users can fine-tune to make it even closer.

                              Also saved a PSP version, though had to flatten to transparent background so not so easy to fine-tune.

                              Pick them up here. Hope it helps

                                  a little tip, work with paths to extract the logo.... it looks very smooth after a few modifications...

                                  i'll post my entry soon.

                                            1. Use the full URL somewhere in the banner as type-in traffic is very valuable. Find a way to always actually put http://www.plumbings.com or at least www.plumbings.com. At the minimm you should have plumbings.com in there because othewise plumbings is just a word and meaningless in the banner.

                                            2. The handjob image does nothing to promote an anal site.

                                                                1. Use the full URL somewhere in the banner as type-in traffic is very valuable. Find a way to always actually put http://www.plumbings.com or at least www.plumbings.com. At the minimm you should have plumbings.com in there because othewise plumbings is just a word and meaningless in the banner.

                                                                2. The handjob image does nothing to promote an anal site.
                                                                Had to comment on #1 rick.

                                                                I have worked as an affiliate marketing manager for years...as well as running my own sites....I have to say, if a banner has a full url, as an affiliate, I won't use it.

                                                                Type in traffic is certainly valuable, however, if my surfer types in the url instead of clicking I don't get credit for the sale.

                                                                As a site owner, your point makes sense, but as an affiliate, it costs me money. ;)

                                                                I'd have a nice mix of banners with and without urls so your affiliates can choose for themselves. ;)

                                                                [added]
                                                                I usually use mouseovers with the url to the site....so you can always suggest to your affiliates to use those instead if they don't want to use the url banners
                                                                [/added]

What sells for a car dealer or realtor has no bearing on this lmao. I will take all the tips you guys and gals have and I honestly appreciate every one of them. Thank you.

                                                                                      I have worked as an affiliate marketing manager for years...as well as running my own sites....I have to say, if a banner has a full url, as an affiliate, I won't use it.

                                                                                      Type in traffic is certainly valuable, however, if my surfer types in the url instead of clicking I don't get credit for the sale.

                                                                                      As a site owner, your point makes sense, but as an affiliate, it costs me money. ;)

                                                                                      I'd have a nice mix of banners with and without urls so your affiliates can choose for themselves. ;)

                                                                                      [added]
                                                                                      I usually use mouseovers with the url to the site....so you can always suggest to your affiliates to use those instead if they don't want to use the url banners
                                                                                      [/added]
