Firstly I love your theme is amazing and if I can help anywhere I will.

But since I'm still learning phpbb I have a pretty simple question. In your theme you have one small image. A loo then the text of the name.

What I want is a image to go across the entire page with logo and name . I have the image made already and I have changed a few things to make it wok but I can't get it to.

What is it I need to change?

Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm very sorry, but I don't understand what you would like to achieve.

Can you please try to explain again maybe using an image?

Best way to do this would be to make your image the full width of your forum, so if your forum is 900 wide make your image 900 wide and then upload it to your styles imageset via ftp. Then go into ACP/styles/yourstyle/imageset and edit your imageset by switching the default forum logo for the one you have uploaded. Check 'include dimensions' and make the width 880 to allow for borders.

if you need to make the image deeper you will have to edit the template to allow. details of this can be found here viewtopic.php?f=74&t=2052175

actually this would not be the best way because it would be temporary, after an imageset refresh you would lose it all again

Someone will usually reply even in older threads ( maybe not as fast when I'm no longer here :oops: ), it means you took the time to search by yourself, and that is the way it should be done (selfsuport first and then ask) ;)

Thanks for the compliment about my site, great to read messages like that because it was/is a big task to do (very far from default)

I don't see Black Pearl installed at your site but incase you still have to start... from memory the header for this style would be 960 by 160 if it's all default ;)

Best way to edit is backup the file first, edit in cpanel or download and edit using PSPad (free) then reüpload (overwrite).

Greetings and goodluck,
