I'm just wondering if the actual release of the subsystem theme was missing the image across the top of the page that looks like metal?

I uploaded and installed it, and it shows up with the exception of that. I checked the image files that I got in the download, and the bg.gif and the logo.gif are the same image, except the logo.gif is longer. It's the grey background with the red stripe just below that metal looking bit at the top of the page. The toplogo.gif comes up as a white box, it doesn't actually appear anywhere when the page loads. Do I just need to download and install the files again or was it intended to be that way?

Thanks for your help

The theme header was modified so it was easier for people to add their site logo. The bg.gif is the header background, the logo.gif is blank so people can use it as the background for theirs. We decided that rather than spend any time making a "PHP-Nuke" logo that nobody uses, we would just include a blank logo.

Thanks for answering so fast. Can I get the metal bit that shows up in the screen shot? It's for a firefighter website, would work well

The original graphic (logo_phpBB.jpg) is still in your modules\Forums\templates\subSystem\images folder.

Thanks very much

I'm guessing that I can modify it to include my own logo, and just replace the blank one, for it to show up?

Well I modified it, and tried to load it, renaming it to the same as the blank logo, and it didn't show up. Can you tell me what I have done wrong here. :?

The graphic from the template folder is a jpg, the blank logo that you are replacing is a gif, just change the extension in the header.html to logo.jpg and it should work.

Ok I guess I better step up to the plate here...

When I took that screen shot, the header you see in the gallery for subSystem..I actually set that table in the header.html with the background being that huge logo.

I edited the logo in Fireworks and stretched it to 1024 pixels wide.

I then renamed it to topback.gif

I then opened the header.html and set the background="themes/subSystem/images/topback.gif", to for the top table.(same table that contains th eimg src. line for the logo.)

The only problem was making a logo...but now you should get the idea at least on how to set that image across the top.

Mikem & Coldblooded,

Thanks so much for your help. I still have a problem though. I got the image up there, when my screen res is set to 1024x728 I have to horizontally scroll it doesn't automatically adjust to fit in the screen. When my res is set to 1280x1024 there is a blank space to the right side of the logo image that shows the bg.gif and a vertical spacer line in between each bg.gif.

I checked in header.html the width values are set for 100%, I'm not entirely sure how to fix it.

Can you help?

Thanks again

Grab this file and unzip it to the subsystem dir. Please backup your original header.html first. Let me know of it works ok for you.
