1st day questions & problems

Hello! Took my first crack at this today and have a possible problem.
I got accepted into an affiliate program, where I get paid per people who put in their email address for a newsletter deal.

The code is for an image and a link with my referral id.
I posted ads about free something on CL, and in emails said basically, "sorry ran out, get more here and just signup with your email for the newsletter."

Now with about 25 click throughs it's not showing any "leads" (what I was supposed to be paid for)

Do I have to include the graphic in my response emails to make this work? Am I being scammed? Or is no one signing up?

What is the network? The offer should be an email submit which are kind of offers with high shaving. Btw did you hide your tracks when posting on CL?

The offer was actually for an image on a website, but I just grabbed the html referral code and used that in my reply emails.

Yeah I use iprental and clbotpro, new ip for every post, no more then 1 post per 3 mins.

(network is dark blue)

How is iprental working with the software. I'm trying to get Yury to build an add on so it will work with the software more seamlessly.
