1. Go to Admin->Main->Promote Your Forum
2. Upload a Background with dimensions of 468x60
3. Make the color how yo want it, by increasing or decreasing the numbers.  The Main Color 1 will be red unless you have already modified it, and the Main Color 2 will be blue.

I think you just add a URL tag to a certain spot.

Yes but it takes a certain code string to add the link to the banner code and that is what I have lost and don't remember

Thank you.

Btw, speaking of links, While the topic notification mail for this forum makes a link for unsubscribing to a topic, it doesn't for the view addy and you have to copy and paste it. Just dropping that out there in case they want to fix it.

I honestly dont get how to set up the colors on these signatures.

I have the image set, but cant get the colors right:


Im trying to get the text blue
I know the background cant change, because im already using an image

Anyone know how I could do this? Or will they not go red because of the image?

Mine doesnt show amount of members, posts and topics like this on the bottom row.

Would that be because its set so guests cannot see it?

Actually what's bad about these is they will show the name of the recent post regardless of if it's supposed to be seen by guests or not.

Server 1 and 2 don't display the signature fully, SMF fixed it for 3 and 4.
