Read Don's blog entries and download the StyleVar Dictionary and the Skinning guide: vB4: Skinning Your Forum in 10 Easy Steps (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/entry.php?2373) and StyleVar Visual Dictionary for Forum, Blog, and CMS (PDF Documents) (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/entry.php?2398)

Either use the Stylevar to change the Titleimage, image path, or simply right click on the Vbulletin logo and find the image location of it. by default it's

root/images/misc/vbulletin4_logo.png

You can then make your new logo and name it vbulletin4_logo.png and upload it to root/images/misc

I would advise you look at the Stylevars though as they are really easy to use and give you more flexibility, ie: you won't have to use a .png file you can use whatever you like, .jpg, .gif, ect, ect although I can't think why anybody would want to use .gif or .jpg over .png tbh.

Okay, so changing the titleimage variable is pretty straightforward.... but how do I change the logo used on the CMS? I've dug and dug and dug for that. I have a hard time understanding why vbulletin wouldn't think that we would *our* logo on *our* site...... what a concept.

in the default theme you can change the image. it appears the cms logo doesn't get changed when using a different theme.

You need to set the layout for the cms isn the section manager. Hover your mouse over the section title and you will see a pencil pop up. Click it and then you can edit which style is used.

Please see this article - Managing CMS Section and Content (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/content.php?93-Managing-CMS-Section-and-Content) Don has written several articles which will probably help you out. Take a look at them.
