Ok, I am going to try and be specific as possible so there's no confusion.

I have a bunch of different sections on my board. I'd like to have a different banner for each section when you click in it.

Example would be a section named "Smackdown vs Raw 09"...I'd like to have a banner above the threads inside that section...NOT replacing anything, just adding it above the threads inside that specific section.

I'd like to do it with each section eventually once I have done all the graphics, I am just unsure where the code is, and what I am supposed to put.

Thanks!!

Have you searched for a solution? Because I know this question was asked very recently. You can just edit the forumdisplay template with conditionals:
<if condition="$forum['forumid'] == X"><img src="URL" border="0" alt="$forum[title_clean]" /></if>

I change the "X" to the forum number (example being 28*?

Also, can I put this anywhere in the template or does it need to be in a certain area?

Yes

Anywhere in that template.

Alright, I got that far now, my only dilema is that the banners appear in every forum....so I have like 16 banners to scroll through before I can get to my threads inside the forum.

I just need the one specific one made for each designated sectioin to be placed there

And the code you are using is?

<if condition="$forum['forumid']=28"><img src="http://www.thewrestlingsanctuary.com/lowm.png" border="1" alt="$forum[title_clean]" /></if>

That's what I have...also like I said, I would like to be able to have each individual forum have their own specific banner

<if condition="$forum['forumid'] == 28"><img src="http://www.thewrestlingsanctuary.com/lowm.png" border="1" alt="$forum[title_clean]" /></if>
One = sign in PHP means assign the thing on the right to the left. == means to compare, which is what you want.

Just add multiple instances of this code (one under another) to use multiple banners.

<if condition="$forum['forumid']=28"><img src="http://www.thewrestlingsanctuary.com/lowm.png" border="1" alt="$forum[title_clean]" /></if>

So if I am following correctly, I would want it like for each individual banner with "28" being the variable?

You posted the exact same thing as last time - no, the code you posted is wrong. Use the example I gave you in post #8 and just change the image path and "28". Do not change anything else.

Alright, well the coding doesn't make anything happen at all. So I guess I'll just leave this alone. Thanks

If you are still using the one you posted (the one with only one equals sign), it will not work (like I've mentioned several times)...

No I am using the exact one you posted in post #8 like you said to do, and there's absolutely nothing happening. When there was just the one "=" the picture atleast showed up, but it was on every forum instead of just one

Try:
<if condition="$foruminfo['forumid'] == 28"><img src="http://www.thewrestlingsanctuary.com/lowm.png" border="1" alt="$forum[title_clean]" /></if>
