   What kind of banners? Where do you want them?

   The easiest way is to drop the code into a text widget

   'how long is a piece of string?'

   there are just too many possibilities to describe them all.

   please provide more details:
   - where exactly you want the banner to show?
   - how large is the banner?
   - where is the banner image stored?
   - does it need to be linked?
   - what theme are you using at the moment?
   - link to your site?

   First of all I have placed hundreds of banners on my other web site which is hosted by fatcow.com Their stuff is easy to use. I click on "add site link", it asks me where I want the Banner (I click the area) then I post the code I got from click bang, (link it ) click done, and the banner shows up.
   I want the banner to show on my blog site in the margin on the right where all of my text links are.
   The banner is the 468 x 60, the normal size.
   The banner is stored or comes from the click bank site.
   Yes it needs to link.
   What's the difference?
   Who to link to my site?

   <a href="http://linktowheremybannergoes"><img src="http://mybanner.com/image.jpg" /></a>

   Seriously. The rest is just customizing.

   You do need to know some basic HTML to customize WP.

   Okay,
   Thanks, I know some HTML. Now tell me where you have "link to where my banner goes" What goes there? And I am assuming where you have "my banner" that would be the code from click or what?

   thanks

   The 'linktowheremybannergoes' is, literally, a LINK to where you want your banner to point to. So if it's a banner pointing to WordPress, you'd be doing: <a href="http://wordpress.org/"><img src="http://mybanner.com/image.jpg" /></a>

   That's a STANDARD a href call.

   As for the image, I'm assuming you've been given a banner image like this:

   http://s.wordpress.org/about/images/buttons/buttonw-grey-8bit.png

   So <a href="http://wordpress.org/"><img src="http://s.wordpress.org/about/images/buttons/buttonw-grey-8bit.png" /></a>
