At our previous hosting site we could upload forum images in ACP/Manage forums/Edit easily, using the direct link to an image. When we try to do that here, we get the message:
The specified forum image does not exist
I've tried using BBcode and HTML as well, but the same message comes up.
The images need to be uploaded to someplace inside your phpBB forum, probably images/upload_icons folder. The path you set in Edit forum would be something like images/upload_icons/forum_image.gif.
