Hi folk,

I'm using this skin (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=136218)on my test forum, and it works a treat. However, I'm very inexperienced with the use of skins and so have found myself somewhat stumped. A quick search for similar issues as yet yielded no results for me. So, here goes my situation:

As you can see there is room for my own logo to fit into the top left corner of this skin but i am at a loss how do manipulate the settings accordingly. I use paintshoppro v9 as my graphic editor. I'm not much of an artist, but I'm sure i could figure out how to save the image according to the dimensions of the top left corner in this skin.

Could some kind person please give me a start on how to actually put my own image into that section?

Thanks in advance :)

I'm not familiar with paintshop pro so I dont know if the psd can be opend in that program but it is included I downloaded to check & the psd for the header can be edited in photoshop.

The file you would want to edit is in ==>Black and Blue Style ==> Black and Blue Style ==> bb-layout.psd

Hope this helps

Thanking you kindly, sorted it now.

The main issue I had, which wasn't listed anywhere (though should have been blindingly obvious) was <img border="0" src=.....>
I didn't even think to include border=0, not doing so caused it all to be misaligned.

Anyway, issue resolved.

Thanks again :)
