Hey guys, im new to this board. My first day here.

I'm still working on my first tgp / fake tgp site. I figured Id learn all I can and make all my mistakes on one site before I expand.

My site is www.hottihaven.com

Any feedback would help me out.

I currently use JMB Soft's AutoGallery SQL for my gallery rotation. I only have my sponsors galleries currently because I dont have enough traffic so its not worth it for a webmaster to submit a gallery..yet.

1. Friends list / top referring websites: I'd like to have a list of friends that automatically updates to show the top referring websites. I havent really figured out how this is done but I assume it would be easy. Is it basically just pulling the information from my toplist or something like that? JMB soft sells AutoRank which has the option of incorporating a compact list into your main page. Is this how everyone does it?

2. Banner rotation: I signed up with AdBrite but wondering if there is a different way. I've seen various java scripts that rotate banners and I've seen expensive banner rotation software. If you are big enough to have people pay for banner space, how do you manage the banners and what script / software do you use?

and lastly....

3. How do I log into my server via SSH or Telnet? I read that this needs to be done via PuTTY but I dont know anything about that either.

Thanks for any support, answers, feedback, advice!
