Hi,

I put my logo in the "Title Image Location" and my logo went huge? Can you show me how to set the width / height for the logo so it can normal?

Please Advice,
Thanks,
Jimmy

The forum currently assumes that you've already used your image editing program of choice to properly size the logo. You have two options:

1. Use an image editing program to re-size the logo appropriately (a.k.a. the better option)

2. Edit inc_header.asp around line line 280 find 
getCurrentIcon(strTitleImage & "||",strForumTitle,"")
and add the parts in red: 
getCurrentIcon(strTitleImage & "|width|height",strForumTitle,"")
(a.k.a. not the best option)


Option one will improve your page load time as visitors won't have to download a big freaking image.

Do this:
getCurrentIcon(strTitleImage & "|75|50",strForumTitle,"")


But like AnonJr said, it is MUCH better to edit the graphic to the size you want in an image editing program. One very good free one is Irfanview. With it you can Resize your image to the size you need. Editing the graphic is better because the file size will also be reduced.

If you simply take a large image and change its dimensions the file size will still be large. Your users will always have to wait for it to load which will get annoying. A smaller file size will load much more quickly.

Hi leatherlips, AnonJr

The Logo I am using is an animation.gif, the software setting when save only have 2 options, either set the size to the max which will fill almost half of the size of a 17" screen or set the next smaller size below that is 288pt or lower.. That's why I can't get the size I wanted.

I took out the "width/height and adjust the "number" only in the getCurrentIcon.. Is all good!!!

Thanks for your Help....

Manny Thanks again!!

Jimmy
