[HowTo] Add a banner option image w/ Link or HTML paste to each forum V.1.6
Tested on vBulletin: 3.5.0 RC2

Zachariah - http://www.gzhq.net

This is a VB3.5 Ver of my previous hack:

*** Add a banner image to each forum (VB 3.0x)
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61555

*** Info:
This modification will Add an image banner w/ link Or paste in your own HTML code option per forum. These files can be any image. (png, jpg, gif, ect). This will be located after the $navbar on FORMDISPLAY. This images can be located on the localhost or on a remote server.
--------------------------------------------------*/

Upload the "plug-in" and edit 2 template, It's a snap.

If you uninstall it well remove all the banners you added.

Remove the template edit from FORUMDISPLAY / SHOWTHREAD for now. I'll make the update to use your old banner data.

image1.jpg @ http://www.yoursite1.com
image2.jpg @ http://www.yoursite2.com
image3.jpg @ http://www.yoursite3.com

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- 
function banner() { 
}; 

banner = new banner(); 
number = 0; 

// bannerArray 
banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite1.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image1.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"
banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite2.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image2.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"
banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite3.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image3.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>" 
 
// keep adding items above here... 

increment = Math.floor(Math.random() * number); 
document.write(banner[increment]); 

//-->
</script>

Useage: If you need more banners edit / add another row.

banner[number++] = "<a href='http://www.yoursite1.com' target='_blank'><img src='/banners/image1.jpg' alt='' border='0' /></a>"

Yes. - FOURMDISPLAY
But, it will show up on all forums. You will not have a choice of a different set of banners per forum.

You can place that in any Template. $header, $footer, ect ..

I was only reffering to bubble's idea about the logo and since it's only a little modification of this hack I think that you can do it... Anyway it's up to you
But please let us know in this thread too when (and if) it will be released
