   Ok, I don't think I did this right- I tried to put a HubPage banner on my Yuwie- I copied the code and then added a unique tracker url- but it's sending me right into my account from my Yuwie.
   Can someone please help?
   (BTW- cool that we can add a HubPages banner- don't know why I didn't do this before!)
   Thanks!

   That´s probably because you are login. Try to logout from hp and try again .

         Nope it's still not right- the banner takes me to Hubpages but it dropped off my tracker url- I don't think I added it right.

   I don't think your tracker is supposed to appear when it redirects to HubPages, but I do believe HubPages still records it.  It if gets you to HubPages then I think it is working.

      Thanks Peter- so I guess when I copy and pasted the banner into my Yuwie it already had my referral link in there?
      (BTW everybody- these are nice banners to put on your sites for people to sign up under you- great referral tool)

         I´m not sure but I think one must add the referral tracker to the url in the banner html .

   It looks to me like you're missing the referral tracker.  You need to add the thing in bold below to the HTML in the banner.
   
   <a href="http://hubpages.com/_hubbanner">
     <img src="http://hubpages.com/x/hubpages_728-90.gif" alt="HubPages"/>
   </a>

   I'm sorry, I misunderstood.  I though you were talking about the redirect to hubpages from the banner on your site.  My apologies.
