Image Based on Forum Id

[Seifer]

PHP Code:

$forumimageid=$DB_site->query("SELECT forumid FROM forum");

        if ($forumimageid == "2") {
          $forumimage = "<img src=\"http://www.plasmicgaming.com/forum/images/2.gif\">";
        } if ($forumimageid == "3") {
          $forumimage = "<img src=\"http://www.plasmicgaming.com/forum/images/3.gif\">";
        } 


I know little about PHP, so I'm just going by what I've learned from looking at forumdisplay and some hacks, but this doesn't work. I place the forumimage variable in "navbar", so it shows up next to the navigation links, but all I got is blank space. What exactly am I doing wrong :angry: ?

Edit: This is in forumdisplay.php above // draw nav bar
