[famis]

Hi,
I get a lot of coupons emailed to me in html for my affiliates. How do I get them converted in ads for my email compaigns.? I have nvu I thought that would do it.

And also how do I create a url for my banners?

Hi John

Your email program should allow you to save the messages when you right click on the subject and choose "Save as" from the menu that pops up. Save it as an HTML file. It may default to .eml but you should have a drop-down box to chosee the file type. If it doesn't save the images, you can right click on those individually and save them to your computer.

Then open your favorite HTML editor, format it to your liking, change the contact information to yours, and point the images to a server where you should upload them to. Then preview the ad in your browser to make sure it came out like you wanted.

To generate am image link, you'll point to it like this:
<img src="http://some-domain.com/images/MyImage.jpg">

Then when you want to send it in email, either set up a template or view the source if your email program allows it, and copy/paste the code into the source. Back at the editing screen, make sure it looks right and then click File/Save As and choose Template. Most email programs have that option. Once save, you can load it at any time from your Templates folder.

Hope that helps.
