I have been trying to edit my forum that I will be using and I simply cannot find the place to change the phpBB default banner that is on my forum.  Can someone tell me where it is?  I am using version phpBB 2.0.12. now and do not plan to upgrade to .13 anytime soon.  Help will be appreciated.

Hi,

Exactly which part do you mean by the banner? The graphic on the left side or the title at the top?

Thanks,

The graphic on the left.  The large phpBB logo that is defaulted there.  The top is where you change the name of the site with text and a description field is included as well.  I am definitely speaking about the top left of the page.  Thanks for the fast response and the help.

You must upgrade to .13 immediately. .12 has a serious security exploit. .13 was released days after .12 because the issue was that serious.

Ok.  I will upgrade...but I still need to know how to change the banner.  Did you know the answer to that?  Thanks.

Take the logo you want to use (must be a gif) and name it "logo_phpBB.gif"  Upload it over the top of the existing logo and you're done.

Right-click on the banner to get the file path. Replace the logo with your own file, after renaming your logo to the same name.

The title can be edited in admin panel.

>>>You must upgrade to .13 immediately>>>
Does anyone know when the Fantastico installs will go to .13? They're still on .11. The Fantastico upgrade method is the easiest way and one of the attractions of installing via Fantastico.

The Fantastico web site says they're on .13.
