Forum Home Enhancements - Full width Forum logo

For fixed width styles
Note: Only use this If not using header adverts

Find in 'header' template. It's at the start of the template

<div><a name="top" href="{vb:raw vboptions.forumhome}.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" class="logo-image"><img src="{vb:stylevar titleimage}" alt="{vb:rawphrase x_powered_by_vbulletin, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}}" /></a></div>

Replace it with

<!-- Full width Logo Code Start -->

<div><a href="http://www.yourforum.com./forum.php"><img src="images/logo.jpg" width="1000" height="120" alt="your forum name Forum" /></a></div>

<!-- Full width Logo Code End -->

black bold link to your forum
red bold location of your logo
blue bold set the width and height of your image to match your Image size
(the width of the Image being the same as your forum width)

- so If your Forum width is 1000px wide, make your logo 1000px wide

green bold your forums name

If you use it mark Installed thx

do you intend to use another image, the one you currently have is gonna look kinda stretched at 1240px

[SᴩiDᴇЯ]

Yes thank you Aurfscan as you will see i have changed the image it is now 1785 x 175 and redone all the pics in PS, if you look at the logo through the PC it looks great, but if you look at the logo on a laptop the forum is within the screen but the logo stretches way beyond the screen size look: http://topholdens.com/forum.php
is there anyway i can fix this?

[AURFSCAN]

the image has to be the same width as your forum width

- forum has to be fixed width

your image is 1800x200px ??

Yes but when i go on my laptop my forum adjusts to the laptop width but not my logo, it over laps the forum by 2x the width on my laptop.

if you go to (in admin panel)

- Style Manager

- Style Variable Editor

- Global

whats the doc_minWidth?
whats the doc_maxwidth?

tremendous contribution thanks man

I installed this code and used width and height variables at 100% and it works great. I do not use header ads in the first place, but I tested one and I get the ads, just not over top of the titleimage, they appear below the titleimage itself. No big deal really for me as I do not use them. But I also cannot speak for how things look on much larger or smaller resolution monitors, but for my desktop and laptop the image looks good in both FF, IE and Chrome so I am happy with it.

Thanks for the great mod coding!

use the link in my signature to see it...

Looks great to me ckelly.. at 1.5 meg might be a little big in size, can you photochop its quality
or make it a jpeg

cheers

Awesome. Does anyone know how I can rotate five banners/logos at every refresh of a page? I'd like to create a folder with my logos on my server and have those rotate on my forums.
