The images directory I am referring to is at the same level as /forums.

Any thoughts?

Place in fields:

• Name: Tooltip message/title
• URL: destination url
• Image: images/trollspread2.gif or http://www.domain.tld/forums/images/trollspread2.gif
• Text: leave empty

OR

• Name: Banner name
• URL: leave empty
• Image: leave empty
• Text:
  <a href="URL" target="_blank"><img src="images/trollspread2.gif" width="580" height="215" border="0" alt="Tooltip/title"/></a>

If you want click tracking, you must use the first solution.

For images like in your example, the first solution is always reccomended. Use the second format only for banners which can't be expressed as a simple picture, e.g. Google AdSense scripts, Flash animations, Streaming video or similar.
