God I'm so helpless! augh but to get the banner we uploaded to show up on our site, do we use the guide URL or something else? (I don't want to kill the bandwith keenspace anymroe than I must..) I tried the***includefilename*** tag as I wasn't quite sure about the other link. (um if there is one ?_?)
I'd really appreciate it if somebody could help me so thanks in advance!

If you just want the banner to appear on your site, use a regular image tag. You aren't going to kill Keenspace's bandwidth with just a banner. The absolute worst you could do is to increase your number of hits by half (if you had only an HTML and a comic on the page before) and increase your KB by 10 * # hits / 3.
The guide banner is for linking off site like having your banner show up in your sig on these forums. Anything related directly to your site should probably come from your site.

Well, for one thing I'm quite sure there shouldn't be "/public_html/" in there.
You just go <img src="/images/banner.jpg"> (Please note / at the beginning.)
But... I think your banner's someplace else! Check the filename and directory. Remember, everything it's case-sensive!

You are the Non. You must go now, and never return."
"1.Scan in high res 2.tweak with curves,levels or something to clean up the scan (or use channel mixer to remove blue pencil lines) 3.Add colour using a layer set to multiply. 4.Add wordbubbles and text as vector shapes. 5. Merge all layers. 6.resize to the web size. 7. Export/Save for Web" that's all I know about webcomicking.

Just to add to that, this is what you have:
<img src=http://runechild.keenspace.com/public_h ... .jpg></img>
In XHTML, it should look something like this:
<img src="/images/banner.jpg" style="width:468px; height:60px; border:none;" alt="Rune Child" />
Some items of note:
- tag names must be lower case.
- tag attribute names must be lower case.
- attribute values must always be quoted.
- the img tag does not exactly open so you do not need the </img> at the end. There's nothing for it to contain. Instead, tags like img and br and hr and others should be closed with the " />" at the end. It has the same effect as a closing tag but doesn't require the second tag.
- It's always good form to add the dimensions of your image and an alt attribute that can be displayed to people who might be viewing your site with images turned off (For whatever insane reason they would want to do that.)
