What is the simplest way to add a small image to my forum description or forum titles ? Is there a place I can put in a simple img source code to do this ?

Thanks much.

In the forum manager, you can use html in the forum description box. You can type the image tag and it will show on your forum.

Thanks, I had a "duh" moment and forgot the " " in my code. Been awhile since I did any hand coding.

Sure... :

<img source= " folder/yyy.gif " />

I used absolute links, to get mine working right:

<img source= " http://www.abcc.com/images/abc.jpg />



I might add, while i was in there, I added bold tags ( <b> </b> ) to my forum descriptions. Simple, but looks much better.

You forgot the alt attribute. Also the source attribute is not correct. :)

Instead it should be:

<img src = "url to the image" alt = "" />
