    Hi everyone!

    I am very new to this game and I joined CJ a few days ago. I also applied for over 10 different programs and have been approved to all of them. The problem is that non of the links fits the design of my site.

    All I need is actually just a small 75x75 pixels product image/photo. Just next to it I would like to write my own text (description, price etc.) using my font style, size and color. At the end I will link one or both of them directly to the product's page including my tracking code.

    I am aware that this will not register any impessions but is it complying with the rules?

    Also is it allowed to save the product image then to resize it to my own requirements and host it on my server?

    Any input will be highly appreciated.

    Cheers

    As far as i know what you want to do is not allowed. Problem is any change in code, you could be risking losing commissions if the tracking system of cj doesnt work properly after the changes you make. Worst thing would be people click from your website and buy the services and you don't get credit for them.

    For what you are trying to do its best to email cj.com and ask them. Its always good to get a confirmation from cj and have their confirmation saved just in case they create any problems later.

    Hello utopia78!

    Thanks a lot for your help and your time.

    Yes it is a similar question. The only difference is, I quess, that the other member wants to replace the image with his own and I want to resize the original one. Still unsure about this. Hopefully someone who tried this before will come to rescue.

    Once again, Thank you very much.

    Cheers

    Youre welcome briz. Hope you get your answers. Have you tried emailing cj yet about it? Ideally cj shouldnt care as long as they are getting the sales but you never know.

    CJ is a hard place I think to earn money - has anyone been succesful besides banner placements?
