Hello my name is (new member) Mark I'm a Lan manager for the US army Part time and an Art Teacher full time. Well for the last 6 years I've been heavily involved in techie stuff so now I got a house full of computers and loving it, before I got into networking I used to do a lot of drawing on my computer and recently with the expansion of so many drawing programs I got back into it.

And, now I have decided on taking up webmastering and I'm loving it, this stuff is very kool. I figured with my background in art and computers it would be a perfect fit. I am understanding everything very well but I'm still confused on one thing: How the heck do they put small video clips on web banners? I've tried it with adobe photoshop only to preview my site on firefox and get nothing eventhough the video is embedded.

Does someone have a small tutorial on the process. I would appreciate it very much, thanks guys, and I hope to be here for a long time.

If you are looking to embed an actual video clip I do not believe this is possible in Photoshop.

Photoshop is a graphics program. Photoshop can make simple animations with the animation tool and be saved as .Gif

If you want an actual video embedded you will need to design the banner in Photoshop and then import the design to Flash and import a video.

Good luck!

Sounds like you need to buy flash. Flash can easily embed videos and/or create video banners.
