How to add my Flash banner to my eBay pages?

You can add a Flash banner or header to your eBay store or "About Me" pages by entering the banner HTML code (see Customizing Your eBay Store and Creating an About Me page eBay Help topics for details). Please bear in mind that the Flash SWF file must be hosted on a web server other than the eBay Stores server. You should either upload the SWF file to your own web server or use third-party free image hosting provider. On your banner download page, Step 2 you will have an option to automatically host your banner file on our server.
