Hi-I saw a couple posts sorta about this but I don't really get it. I want to put banners and stuff next to the comments box. Do I have to make a table w/2 columns, and put the comments in the left column and the banners in the right? How do I do that?

If you want a reference, go to http://www.lissaexplains.com/tables.shtml
This page breaks down tables in a very simple way. It explains what each tag means so you can visualize it.

<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>Cell 1</td>
<td>Cell 2</td>
</tr>
</table>

That is a 2 collumn table. From there just paste the codes you want into the cells.
If you want comments in the left side and banners in the right, you'd have something sorta like this.

<table border="1">
<tr>
<td><!--[COMMENTS=300]-->
<p><!--[COMMENT_FORM=250,250]--></td>
<td><img src="banner1.jpg">
<p><img src="banner2.jpg"></td>
</tr>
</table>

Or depending on how much you want in the tables, you can nest them too.

<table border="1">
<tr><td>

<table border="1">
<tr><td>
<!--[COMMENTS=300]-->
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
!--[COMMENT_FORM=250,250]--></td>
</tr>
</table></td>
<td>

<table border="1">
<tr><td>
<img src="banner1.jpg">
</td></tr>
<tr><td>
<img src="banner2.jpg">
</td></tr>
</table>

</td></tr>
</table>

It's more cumbersome, but if you need more control over what goes in there, you can have it.

cool! thanks you both!!
