    When I copy the html code for an affiliate banner into an "affiliate" web page, the link works and the affiliate is flagged correctly when clicking through, but instead of getting my banner graphic I get the <alt> text. The .jpg is there in the referenced directory, do permissions need to be changed or ??? I've checked the path, capitalization, etc. a dozen times.

    The code for the link is this:

    <div id="apDiv144"><a href="https://www.equus-academy.com/amember/go.php?r=3&i=b0"><img src="https://www.equus-academy.com/EABHImages/EABanner245By160.jpg" border=0 alt="Equus Academy" width=245 height=160 /></a></div>

    Yes, it's definitely there. However, your question helped me figure it out. My website is secure (https) so it would make sense that you/others can't see or access the files in my directories (a good thing, except in this case). To test my theory, I copied my banner to an unrelated non-https site and the image linked in perfectly from there. Not the most graceful solution, but it works for now.

    Thanks!
