Perfect! Thanks

Hmm... I am trying to make the changes listed in the installation package, and everything was going great until I got to:
In NAVBAR:

Find:
<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>

I have looked and looked, and I do not see this in any Navbar template. I am using vb vers 3.0.7, and have a custom skin installed from extremepixals. I am sure I am doing something wrong, I just don't know what it is!

You're not using stock code apparently. You'll have to use your judgement on placement.

Ok, got that part fixed, but now I keep getting the error 'Please complete all the fields. Press the back button, correct the problem then try again.' I have filled in each of the fields, but to no avail.

Anyone have any idea's?

I did the random garage image on the main page and it works fine.

Thanks
