Hi all,

I'm a SBI user and also a html idiot.

is it advisable to save the image as a file and modified the size according to our needs. There will not be any link from the image since I dun know html and hence don't know how to add a contextual link to an image. Most of the image links provided are not even suitable to my page.

Next use the text links that I created.

Thanks for the kind advice.

Regards, Zhenhong

Since this is under Affiliate Networks, I will assume you are asking about merchant images. If the image is of a product itself, then you can save and resize as needed. However, if it is for a banner, button, etc. standard advertising image, you should ask permission of the merchant. The same thing goes with changing the text within a merchant text link.

A lot of the merchants are disallowing any change in text, resize, etc. as it can interfere with their "brand" and it is a lot of work to track these things.
