UKBL ~ Forum Marquee/Scroller with Pictures

Want a different kind of Scroller/Marquee for your Site, With changable gradients and Font Colours/Type/Size.

This is so easy to add to your forum. First we start with the images

just upload the images to your forums images/misc folder

To change the gradient, just make up a 50px by 100px box and add a gradient of your choice, i made mine in Paint.net, but you can use photoshop or gimp.

Next comes the transparent gifs, they are 40 pixels square, you could add your logo or any other image you want.

Just make sure all the graphics are uploaded to your correct folder and thats it on the graphics side.

Now the code :D

1st Edit

here you edit the width of the marquee, default is 800, You can change the border width, and color The font color and style, so easy from this 1st edit.

2nd Edit

This is the location of the gradient gif, if you change the color and the name of your gradient, don't foreget to change it here too ;)

3rd Edit

Here you can see the 2 gif files and their locations, You can add more pictures by simply adding the html code like this <img src="images/misc/YOUR.GIF" align="middle">

You can see where your message goes too ;)

When you've finished, Save your edits and copy and paste the entire code to your Styles Header, Right at the bottom. Or you could experiment by adding it to other templates, ;)

You can, since its only basic html code, add more than one to a page, with different messages, Experiment is the fun part :D

Thats it, Hope you have fun with your new scroller

Hi El Intocable

Can you post the full code your using here, so i can take a look, I'll fix it for you then you'll be able to upload it to your site

Thanks mate :up:

Here it is mate

Hi El Intocable

I've had a look at the code and the code is OK, a quick way to test it is paste it to a text editor like notepad or similar and then save it as a html file, something like banner.html, save it to your desktop and you can check your code by simply clicking on it.

Thats what i did and the font came out the right size, can you have a go your end and let me know what you see by adding a screen shot ;)

should look something like this

The text is the right size, the banner gradiaent and icons are missing as i'm not pointing to your server, but the letters are the right size, theres nothing wrong with the code :eek:

yes it is very strange mate, I have the same results, but is ok mate I love you mod and Im keeping it no matter what size the text is. lol

If I find a solution I will post it here just to have solve problem for others can see..

Thanks very much

Let me know if you get it to work, ;)

the gradient and icons is place in the same folder.. those are missing because the code not point where is the gradient and icons is located... take a look to your code see below
