I don't see a button or icon to click to reply to a link. How does it work? And one more thing has cropped up. I uploaded a banner for the "Link To Us" page and in the block where the image should be there is php code instead. Please help. thanks

I've gotten the first part of my question worked out, but I'm stumped as to why code rather than my image banner appears in the Link To Us window. Please help. Thank you.

That's HTML, not PHP. ;)
That's the code for other websites to be able to copy and place the banner image on their site.

In another life you must have been a lawyer! OK, I get that someone copies and pastes the php somewhere, but I can't see how just pasting the php code to a page makes an image appear by magic. How does the picture get to their page? When and if the picture appears on their page, does clicking it send the viewer to my website? Thank you for clearing this up.

It's not magic, that's the way code works... <img> tags like the one you see in the code display images. The image is called from your server since it contains the full URL.
Yes, clicking the image sends the user to your URL, as you can see by the <a href="http://yoursite.com"> code that's around the <img> tag.
