I checked on ebay self-building tools and it says copy and paste on your website. Does this mean, we still have to use BANS to build a website? or simply build your own site and then copy and paste? http://togo.ebay.com/affiliates/create/ <object width="355" height="300"><param name="movie" value="http://togo.ebay.com/togo/togo.swf?2008013100" /><param name="flashvars" value="base=http://togo.ebay.com/togo/&lang=en-us&mode=normal&itemid=280202695374&query=120&pid=345678900" /><embed src="http://togo.ebay.com/togo/togo.swf?2008013100" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="355" height="300" flashvars="base=http://togo.ebay.com/togo/&lang=en-us&mode=normal&itemid=280202695374&query=120&pid=345678900"></embed></object>
if you are a total newbie, BANS will help you to set up an eBay site(with eBay API and your affiliate ID) very quickly. Or, you can just insert text link into your webpages though BANS site tend to convert higher.
