If you do not see an affiliate you'd like to add, you can add your own affiliates by using the instructions in the chapter How to Add Custom HTML to a Web Page feature.  See this guide for instructions.

Centering your affiliate button

To center the button for an affiliate like PayPal, add the following code to the beginning of the code snippet that's generated for you:

<div align="center">

 Then at the very end of your button code close the tag with

</div>

 What this code is doing is telling your code to be enclosed in this element and to be aligned center.
