I have tried the search box and i dont think anything came up, buti was just wondering how to ad banners when it says banner path.

do you just do this?

actually, you should upload it first. say to /public_html/images/banner.gif

and then the path is: /public_html/images/banner.gif

sorry for the impatient-ness -_- but do you know when it will show up on the search engine?

I dunno. A couple of days... hard to tell, but it will, eventually. So since you can't do anything to speed up the process, why worry?
(well, if it takes more than a month you can start to worry, but it shouldn't)

ok, i know i sound impatient, but whenever i check the guide thing my banner isnt there, and whenever i check the banner path thing it is. I'm confused

make sure it shows up on your banner manager. This messed me up for a while. your banner should show a preview of the banner. if you get no preview of your banner image you might have the banner sized wrong.

it showed up on the banner manager, but not on the guide search

and on the manager does it say "1" for banner type?

sorry if this sounds silly, but just making sure everything is correct.

oh no, you're not being silly at all.

no, it does not say 1, but the thing is frozen and i can't change it or type anything in. my banner still shows up for some reason though. even when i manual update and everything if you're supposed to do that..

ok, it's me again (my starblinkz account got screwed up so I had to make a new one)

and no, my banner still is not working (well it is...ahh just keep reading) or showing up anywhere. I've tried everything, the banner shows up fine on the preview ok this may sound dumb, but you know when you look banners up in the guide? How do you make them show up there? cause mine doesn't do that.

You mean, it shows in the siteadmin, but not on the guide?

To show in the guide it has to be the right size (look for a recent thread about it), and then you have to wait a few days, changes to the guide are far from instant.

I'm still running into the fact that while I still have the banner in the right folder the pathway to it does not exist.....what have I done wrong?

sided note I seem to be doing all the step to make my buttons pic's instead of just text but it seems to have not worked....I suck at this web mastering......
