Hey guys,
I was wondering if it is possible for the logo.gif file to be a flash .swf file. I have tried making an animated .gif but the quality isn't as good as I want it to be.
Any help?
Thanks
I don't have much experience in this but I did add the flash to a logo once...
Home » Template Sets » TEMPLATE NAME
In header file
<div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="
{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>
I entered the flash file url in the bold bit if I remember correctly... sorry if im wrong.
Okay, that works when I put a .gif file, but as soon as I changed it to a .swf the banner doesn't show. Is there a setting I have to change or something?

I think you actually have to "Embed" it into the header... sorry I didn't mention before... I just checked and I did embed>
<embed src="
Location of SWF file?clang=en" quality="high" bgcolor="#
COLOUR CODE HERE OR DELETE THIS BIT"
width="
[b]Banner Width[/b]" height="
Banner Height" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspace="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?

So do I put this code:
<embed src="Location of SWF file?clang=en" quality="high" bgcolor="#COLOUR CODE HERE OR DELETE THIS BIT"
width="[b]Banner Width[/b]" height="Banner Height" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspace="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?
P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" ></embed>
In for the bold section of mcgroove's post?
Yes.
Ooo, this is the first time I've had a "Message too short" warning when trying to post a reply.

Okay I think I am still doing something wrong, it isn't working.
My code:
<div id="header">
<div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="<embed src="http://www.competitivevideogames.com/forumbanner.swf?clang=en" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000"
width="[b]Banner Width[/b]" height="Banner Height" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspace="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?
P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" ></embed>" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>
