Can someone help me host a banner?
 
I have a few questions regarding banners. I want to design my own banner but I don't have a web host to do so. How do I go about makeing myself a banner? I will design it but I want to have it in my posts. Mainly what are the specs for the banners on here? And is there a way to turn the file with my banner into an HTML document without web space?

Thankyou

Can't you host it on imageshack and put [IMG] tags around the link?

Except with me, they were bastards and never validated/ confirmed my account, so I have to use other means of pic hostage.

Probably because you screwed up the email address.

Anyways, you don't need to convert anything into HTML. All you need is a photobucket account - you log in to it, upload your banner image file, select the [img] coded URL, copy that into your signature, and it should display correctly. If it doesn't, then you fail at the internet.

Hmm so if I go ahead and design my banner in photoshop save the file as a Jpg and then upload the file to this photobucket then I should be able to have it?

Cool thanks I just signed up to photobucket. Now I will go and design my banner. I understand how it works now thanks again.

Peace!
