Creating a code for a banner

I apologize in advance if this has been talked about before. I am extremely ignorant to HTML. I have a website but use the codes rarely.

A site I visited would like to display my banner on their site, but they need it in HTML. I've been battling this for close to three hours (like I said this is very mind boggling to me.)

My website is www.daveharm.com

I am trying to create a code for a large GIF banner on my "linkback page."

This is what I've come up with -

<a href=http://www.daveharm.com/ “ target=”blank”><img
src=http://www.daveharm.com/images/dh_logo1_468x60px.gif”alt=”daveharm.com”/
></a>

I think I'm close, but in all honesty, I really don't know.

If anyone could help me

Thanks,
Dave

That worked for that banner but why can't I change the banner size and it won't work. My goal is to have all my banners ready for download to HTML

An example from my linkback page www.daveharm.com/linkback

The smaller GIF banner when I subsitute

where

was - it won't work and it won't work on my jpeg banners

Now what am I doing wrong?

Thanks
Dave

You can add the height / width attributes to your HTML code

I'm scratching my head, trying to figure out how come it works - but it does...

Thanks again,
