Ok, so I am obviously just beginning to figure this out... but what I am trying to do is have 2 static image ads in the header (plain old gifs). I already have one static ad in the header (since before installing this mod) but just got a new advertiser... so now I want them to alternate each time the page is refreshed. Install seems like it went perfectly BTW.

First, I'm wondering if this is even the right mod for what I want to do... I was told that it is by someone else. I still think it is the right one for me from what I can tell.

Right now I have the following code in the Ad HTML box in the "Header 1" ad location (my first ad that has been running since before installing this mod).

Code:
<a href="http://www.advertiser-site.com" target="_blank"><img src="advert-images/1st-company-ad.gif" title="company title" alt="company keywords etc." /></a>

Do I somehow add the following code to it, in order to have the rotating banners work?

Code:
<div style="text-align:center"><!--@vbbanners:0@--></div>

And then for the second ad, do I repeat the same process to have them alternate each time the page is refreshed? Sorry if I'm driving you nuts with simple questions.


ALSO, are there instructions somewhere for how to do all of this, that I am missing??? or am I supposed to just scour this extremely long thread for info on how to implement all of this??? I printed the PDF for rotating banner system, but none of this was in there I don't think....
