This places a specific banner on a specific forum.  I have companies sponsor specific forums and need to display their ads on specific forums.  I've not seen this code anywhere else so I posted it here as it was written for this skin.

1st use your graphic editor to add your banner ad to c2_04.jpg and rename it to a unique name.



//this is stock code to find
<table width="100%" height="100" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" background="images/c2/c2_03.jpg">

<tr>

//left title banner
<td width="100%"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="images/c2/c2_02.jpg" alt="Site Name" width="304" height="100" border="0"></a></td>

//custom code added 
// forum home banner page
<td><if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]==NULL">
<a href="http://your_link_to_banner_ad.com.com">
<img src="images/c2/c2_04-u.jpg" alt="Picture Title" width="465" height="100" border="0" align="right">
</a></if>
   
// forumID 1
<td><if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]==1">
<a href="http://your_link_to_banner_ad.com.com">
<img src="images/c2/c2_04-x.jpg" alt="Picture Title" width="465" height="100" border="0" align="right">
</a></if>

//if you want a place holder for a forum without a banner at this time
<if condition="$foruminfo[forumid]==7"></if>
// all the forums you want

</td>



    </tr>
    </table>

// please remove any comments

//footer
//find code

	</td>
</tr>
</table>


//add footer banner code, I'm just using stardard banner ads on the footer.
