What are the dimensions for the banners?
and can I put a banner on my site without using FTP?

Hi there,

Banner size should be dictated by you or your site/theme

Most banners are 468x60, however you can get larger and of course smaller images.

If your getting banner code from someone like Amazon for example, then go to Banners within the admin section of your site, setup a client called amazon.
Now go to the add banner part of the site choose amazon from the list of clients, decide how many impressions the banner should have, 0 = unlimited number of page impressions.

then you will see the option for image url and something like target url.

Img URL is for linking to images that are at another site, the target URL would be where you wish to send them.

Alternatively, going back to the amazon idea, you would have banner code from them, you can tick the box that says something like use HTML and paste the banner code in the large box and then click Add Banner, this will add the banner to your site and you will not have had to use FTP.
