There will be a field for allowed file types, just add "image/gif" there (dont forget the comma).
This was the reason why i was unable to upload the files.

I have put image/png and now I can upload pings, but when i added gif as in 'image/png,gif' I could not upload gifs. I also tried image/png,image/gif so what format should it be.

I uploaded a banner but couldn't see the image on my actual forum. Also is there any way to have it so you can upload a banner to a particular skin?

I've installed this on my testing server (using 3.6.8) and it works according to spec (so far).

My question!

Is there a way to make this banner function "only" on the forumhome?

Rather than using this as the site banner, I am using it as a "Sponsors" banner Ad Manager.

Any thoughts?
------------------------------------------------------------
Ignore this post. I came up with my own very ghetto solution (encapsulated the header modification in an If statement to check the forumid).

Still, if anyone gets a more elegant solution - I'm all ears!

Code:
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><center><a href="http://www.iemas.us/index.php"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]"><a href="<if condition="$ban['url']">$ban[url]<else />$vboptions[forumhome].php$session[sessionurl_q]</if>" target="_blank">$banner</a></center>

BTW, I really like how I can tell the banner which forums to show up in.
Good job on this mod.

Thanks
Keith
Thanks for this. But with the default theme the logo's centered left. How can I get the banners to go right? Or if I simply lose the logo how could I add some space between the banners & the top of the forum?

Also with my main theme the headers left. How do I add space between it & the banners to make them go right. http://x.dawnswebdesigns.com if you want to see what I'm talking about.

Thanks for any help.

Also to be helpful to others the creator of this mod may want to add to the instructions: create a folder under images called brotator & chmod it to 777. And although the settings have added pnglgifletc. you must add image/ before every single one before they'll work. And since it already has image/jpeg you'll have to delete one else have 2.

Otherwise thanks very much. I've been looking for this a while...glad I finally found it.
