Hi guys,
I'm trying to put some subtle banners into my navbar and I'm half way there, but I'm struggling a bit with the technical side of things

This is a mockup of what I'm trying to achieve:

2 separate images, both randomly selected from a possible 15 or so, one will be an ad banner, the other smaller one will just be a filler to make things look consistant.

so far, I've just inserted the following code in the navbar template

Code:

<div align="center">
<img src="path to my image.jpg" />
</div>

after

Code:

<td class="alt1" width="100%">
<if condition="is_array($navbits)">
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr valign="bottom">

and

Code:

<if condition="$show['member']">
<td class="alt2" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap">

and

Code:

<td class="alt2" nowrap="nowrap" style="padding:0px">
<div valign="top" align="center">

This is very close to the desired result, but just not quite right......

I get this when people are logged in:

the two images don't quite line up at the top. The right hand one is higher...

and this when they are logged out:

where the right hand image spills up over the top, really messy.....

Once I have the pics sat in the right place, I can swap the image code for some that pulls a random image from a folder, once I work out how to do that......

Does anyone have any pointers for where I'm going wrong?
Should I be creating some more table elements and putting these pics inside them or something?

thanks
James

JamesUK try playing around with your TABLE cellspacing or cellpadding on the left image issue

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
