    I've seen this technique used on other lenses and never could figure out how it was done until now. Thanks so much for sharing your clever and successful Amazon listing techniques for Squidoo lenses! Blessings.

    I had never thought of using thumbnails before, but your "product sampler" example works. Already bookmarked this lens from my previous visit, so I know where to get the code. Time to kick things up a notch. Thanks for the great tips and detailed instructions.

    Hi Greekgeek, thanks a lot. Your lens is of great help. I'm following what you have told here. In fact, I keep on visiting this lens as a guide for building my lens.

    Thank you for these instructions, I just started a second lens after an absence of nearly 4 years and was wondering how to add amazon links to the modules the way you are showing it here. I must admit, it took me quite a long time to figure it out, but not your fault, the old brain is a little rusty... lol - but I finally managed to get it right. Thanks again, I've bookmarked as I am sure I will have to come back a few times more.

    I like the ease of Fluff's tool, but your coding looks less "BUY ME"; being less obvious works for me.

    Thank you so much! Very useful lens. I've been looking for this since a while.

    Cool stuff. I especially didn't know about the "negative padding"! That will be useful to me for sure. Thanks!

    Thanks ever so much. I think I'm ready to tackle this. You are so clear and helpful to those of us who are HTML novices. "Squid Angel blessed."

    Thank you SO much! I'm been trying to figure out how to get a larger picture with the up to date pricing! I wasn't sure if we were allowed to enter our own image in the amazon module, so thank you! A lot of other great image coding ideas! I have your lens bookmarked! :)

    You've made amazing contributions to Squidoo all along, and this is one really lovely one that even beginners can use. If I haven't thanked you before, be sure I am grateful for you now! Thank you very much for everything!
  • kiwisoutback Jan 17, 2012 @ 11:49 pm | delete
    Amazing tips! Thanks for this tutorial, this really opens up the options for lensmasters. If Squidoo still had the option to favorite a lens, I'd be doing that right now (why'd you do that, Squidoo?). Your tutorials are always top notch and beautifully displayed. Bookmarked, thanks Ellen!
  • TransplantedSoul Dec 22, 2011 @ 7:39 pm | delete
    I likek these format of links. I'll have to try this. Do they also work for amazon.co.uk links? This can impact the shipping price - see my description here: http://www.squidoo.com/use-amazon-to-your-advantage
  • lorindaleigh Dec 13, 2011 @ 12:50 am | delete
    Thank you soooo much!!! This is going to make my lens all look so much better!
  • thebestmousetrap Dec 11, 2011 @ 10:48 pm | delete
    Aha, html, I will try this and see how it works. I wansn't even aware you could use your own amazon aff links until tonights search which started with "can I add a astore to my lens"
  • lorindaleigh Dec 12, 2011 @ 8:12 am | delete
    You can add a link to an astore

    Looks great! And very helpful for those of us who aren't great with code, but can copy, replace and paste. :-)

    I love the Webkinz 4 in a row image! It looks really clean and professional. Thank you for taking the time to pass these suggestions on to the rest of us.

    Great tutorial on creating your own Amazon links. Helps you get around the 20 module limit in Squidoo as well.
