What skin you use should not be an issue.
How big banners you use, what they look like and where on your site you put them is all up to you.

[aerogear2002]

great mod love it but I want the banner to be inside the that box right on top of the blue nav bar, next to your user name when you log in.

I've installed this on 3.6.4, and so far it seems to work great. Thanks.
FWIW I'm using it for images without links only as the main banner in the header.

For the newbies asking how to install, follow the instructions below.

6. Browse to the xml and then upload (and the banneradsTWO too, only with this one, ALLOW OVERWRITE)
7. Now go to your adminCP -> styles and templates -> style manager -> pick the style you want to include the banners in -> in the dropdown, selcect "edit templates" and then find the template you want the banners to be in. (for example "header").
8. Put the code $GLOBALS[bannerads] and or $GLOBALS[banneradstwo] where you want it.
9. Now go to vBulletin Options in the AdminCP and make sure the hack is enabled (scroll down to the bottom and you'll find it). Then you just add the code for each banner, and make sure they are enabled too.

Example for banner code:

<a href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.google.com/intl/en_ALL/images/logo.gif"></a>
