i need to direct traffic to a website.
To that end i am trying to create a link that I will add to my orkut, facebook, etc and as my signature in mesaage boards like this. All it will have is
1- a line explaining what the site is about
2 - a picture - saying "click here" or something similar (i can create the pic in photoshop)
3 - the pic and the writing should be linked to the website - so when someone is impressed by what they read and click on the pic/writing - they come the site
is there any way at all that i can get the html code for this free from the internet? Thanks a ton everyone.,
@brahmin,
I don't know if this site will help at all, but i didn't want to leave your post without any replies.

If you can wait a day, i'll can tell you tomorrow, when my uncles down (he knows all about that crazy HTML stuff)
Good Luck

@brahmin,
Microsoft Word will generate HTML code for you. What you want to do is very easy. There are lots of HTML tutorials that will help you if you don't have access to a word processor that does HTML.
@brahmin,
Here you go, just replace instances of "site_url", "image_url" and "Line_explaining_what_site_is_about" with what you want.
Code:<p><a href="site_url">Line_explaining_what_site_is_about</a></p>
<a href="site_url"><img src="image_url" /></a>
thank you very much all of you.
i knew i could count on you.
just one question - the image url - it means i got to upload the image somewhere like photobucket.com and then supply THAT url in the code? Sorry i am not good at this so could not understand.

Yes, but don't use photobucket, you may run into bandwidth caps etc. Use something like imageshack.
@Robert Gentel,
Thanks - Can i use a picture from the website (i want to direct traffic to) itself??
That way i dont rely on anyone else. Oh and one more thing please - is the site url in www or in
http://www. format?
Thank once more.

Yes.

http is the protocol for viewing web pages, www is a subdomain. Whether or not this site uses www (it may or may not) you need
http:// before any domain to link to any page or file through the http protocol (you almost always will want this).
And example of a difference would be
ftp://domain.com
