hello i have a question, im not sure if its possible, but here is the question

is it possible to set a background for each forum or subforum

for example cars is a forum and when you select it

it will show other background

examples:

http://www.mymmogames.net/forum/concerto_gate.html

http://www.mymmogames.net/forum/megaten.html

I presume you mean the page background, right? If you could use vBulletin conditionals (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=200894) so it would know which background to show for which forum, then it should work. Problem is, I think the background is part of a stylevar and not actually in the templates, but in the CSS file. Someone correct me if wrong.

yeah is is part of a stylevar, but no.. i mean the logo

could this work:

<body style="background-image:<? switch ($forumid) { case 73: "/bbs/images/people1.gif"; break; case 74: echo blahblah2.png; break; } ?>">

?
