I really can't help you with the info you are providing. I suggest you look at the manual for your ftp client and figure out how to change the permissions. The error you are currently getting on the logo is a permissions error and you aren't going to be able to see the logo until you change the permissions for it.

(You may be able to change the permissions for it on your computer first (Get Info) and then upload it with the new permissions. That may be worth a try.)

figured out how to change permissions. It was 755, changed to 644 like you said and it didn't work . . . oddly after I'd hit OK, it'd default it to 744{?}

755 is fine (the bigger the number, the more permissions - do a google search to see how they are done). Check the permissions of your folder also.

I do wonder why you don't have other images in your misc folder. Default vbulletin has a whole lot of images in there and you aren't showing them on your list. Are you missing any images on your site (besides the ones you are trying to upload yourself)?

I wouldn't know I'm too beginner . . . I'd like to see my background as well . . .
Anyway for me to go back to my vBull files on my computer and upload certain folders again?
Should I delete my logo from server and try again?
There's other questions I'd like answered, I am DYING to get this part over with {I know you are too! LOL!}

Did you do as I said and check the permissions on the folder?

I still highly recommend you go read the manual on your ftp client and get to understand how to use it and how to move around in your forums directories.

When I tried to view your logo: http://www.theswankysanctuary.com/im...c/tSSLOGO.jpeg

It says "403 Permission Denied"

Change the permission of image so that we can see it. Usually chmod 644.

.

--------------- Added [DATE]1242247251[/DATE] at [TIME]1242247251[/TIME] ---------------

It is also a good idea to use lowercase name for files and folder.

Try changing the name of the file to lowercase.

Did you see my response about changing the permission?
Really, simply changing the capitalization can make a difference?

Are there people here who do minor tweaks like this for a fee? I'm burning out. . .

Hey there,

I've read through the thread and I have some tips with more specific details with regards to your FTP client and what you should be doing. I've included screenshots for ease of access and understanding.

Okay, so, you use Filezilla, correct? Awesome, same as me, easy client to use.

Right, People are using words you are unfamiliar with cos you've never used them before, not to worry, they're all relatively simple things.

CHMOD'ing is where you set permissions on a file, or folder on your webserver, through chmod'ing, you can control who can read, write and execute your file, or in this case, images. Right, thats a brief explanation, you don't really need to know what each mode does, just a general rule where the higher the number, the more permissions are there for normal web-goers.

Right, so, how to CHMOD using FileZilla

So, As you can see in this Image (click) We're in the "public_html/forums/images", now yours might be different, as not all people use a "/forums/" part, but it's essentially the same.

Right, now, I'm using vista, you're using Mac, it's gonna be differnet at some points, so do the mac equivalent of right clicking, on the misc folder, as seen in this Image (click), and scroll down to "File Attributes", click it.

Okay, now for the easy part. Replace what you have in your text box with 755, or 777, as seen in this Image (click).. You might need to tick the "Recurse into subdirectories" button, as is shown in the image.

That's the CHMOD sorted out. Now for the Logo replacement. It's pretty easy to replace the current vBulletin logo using the style manager, in your admincp find this bit Image (click) and replace:

"images/misc/vbulletin3_logo_white.gif"

with

"images/misc/tSSlogo1.jpeg" (if this is where it is uploaded to on the server...)

Now, DON'T SAVE YET. On the same page, find: Image (click) and put
Code:
#CC9966 url(images/gradients/tSSback.jpeg);
instead of
Code:
#E1E1E2
Also, I noticed somewhere that your site was looking for the images in "public_html/images", don't do that, don't include the public_html, just "images/misc" and "images/gradient" etc.
