What I am doing is allowing paid advertisers to upload photos to their "Link Info" pages.
What would of been neet would of been to be able to run a rotating or static banner to all of those who do not pay for their own advertisement. Then it would encourage people to pay and have their own banner or logo or photos there instead.

Was just an idea.

Hi Gurudood,
I am doing the same (allowing paid sites to post extra pictures and info in the link info page), I would have thought that an insert of the banner code in the link info template would give you what you are looking for, or are you requesting a dedicated premium link info template page ?

Actually I never knew the banner rotator worked on the extra link info page... Now that I see that, thats great..
But It would be cooler if it would only display an image there if they did not pay for advertising only.

This way, paid advertisers dont see the "advertise here" advertisement, and only see what they paid for.

Hope you understand

OK I do now,
That can be done by FM in one of 2 ways:

- A new Premium Link Info Template (pls. Pls.) or :

- Allowing the selection of templates on a per site basis too, not just per category as it does now.

This way you do without the banner code all together in the free sites template and and use regular banner code for the premium sites

Just a side note here, the place your ad here graphic annoys not only the free listers but your visitors too. I would guess that the majority of any sites listing are the free ones, so if you want to run a banner campaign you won't get too many impressions if the premium are the only ones carrying the banners.
All the best & Good luck

What I wish is...

If a person didnt pay, then they dont have the choice to upload photos about their website/business on their extra link information page. Soooo... how it works now is, !!photos!!,
!!photos2!!, !!photos3!! etc are on the template which are on all the link info pages. If there is no photos uploaded by the user nothing is showing in the link information pages.

What would be cool is if the !!photo!! isnt uploaded then there could be a "default" photo set. So instead of nothing showing, default photos could be used.

Just an advertisement that they can advertise in that section, and telling them the prices is what I want.

I understand what you are saying about the premium link info mods, good idea. I also wish there was a way to make it so you can apply a template to the entire directory instead of having to do multiple main catagories, because I have so many customized templates. I want the same link info page on all pages, and they are already created now, and are not right I had to go back and fix them, and I have so many customized catagories templates they all have to be done manually, bit of a pain.

Also.. how could I make a "Premium Link Info" Page that will work automatically for all premium listings?
That would be ALOT easier. Right now you can create/edit premium listings, but not the premium only "Link Info" pages.
That would be a nice feature too.
