Post Changing Header Image in Milky Way 
 
Hey,

I have a question. I'm trying to change the header image for my forum. I did that by deleting the topicon_small.png file and using my own image with the same file name. The image size is 996x156 but something keeps resizing it to 978x154. In my administration options it says the size is 996x156 but on the forum itself its smaller. I don't know what I'm doing wrong

Welcome to IcyPhoenix.com Nim,

For starters .. please don't post personal questions in the Release Thread, I've moved it for you to where it belongs

Secondly, a link would be nice.

Third .. deleting the topicon_small.png ?? why did you do that? does imageset/sitelogo_small.png sound more realistic?

Greetings,
...Joshua203

Not so impatient, we're only just starting

Please edit /styles/black_pearl/imageset/imageset.cfg
FIND
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
img_site_logo = sitelogo_small.gif*190*280

REPLACE BY
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
img_site_logo = sitelogo_small.gif*158*960

 how does it look now?

Don't worry, I'm not impatient, just wanted to inform you :3
Where can I find this black_pearl folder? I guess you meant the milky_way/imageset one. Changed the code like you suggested. Seems like nothing has changed.

Go to ACP and refresh the imageset.

Sugestion:

you can do this if you want:

open stylesheet.css
find
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
    background: url('./images/top_header.png') repeat;


replace with
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
    background: url('./images/sitelogo_small.png');


open overall_header.html
find
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<td height="158 align="left" valign="middle"><a href="{U_INDEX}">{SITE_LOGO_IMG}</a></td>


replace with
Code: [Download] [Hide] [Select]
<td height="158 align="left" valign="middle"><a href="{U_INDEX}"></a></td>


upload this image to theme\images\
 sitelogo_small_1370254569_340339

clear cache

you will get this

 yourdomain_com_index_page_2013_06_03_12_22_03

When I do this, it removes the whole image, there is nothing now :c

Did you do something else, because I did everything you wrote but it doesn't work like yours?

Edit:
I refreshed the template now, and it finally works <3 thanks for the help

Thanks Limun, however I was going to keep the logo clickable as front image... meaning remove site description and site name lines and maybe one more, then center the logo and refresh.

If this is fine for you Nim, it's fine for me... if you want the clickable header, let us know

If you could tell me how to remove the site name and description lines from the header.. that would be awesome! I don't use them right now, but I "have to", because the registration mail says "Welcome to ??". I guess I have to fill in the name of the board one. But then it shows on the header, and that looks awful =(
