Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I was wondering how you made the logo image?

I mean the Bluepearl design that comes in over the top of the other image that comes with the skins.

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks.

You need to get software called 'macromedia flash' a trial version can be downloaded here. www.macromedia.com

it's not free tho...

you could download the free trial. but i think that has limited features..

(if there is an trial, i don't know

)

Trial has 100% all the features, but only works for 30days.

How do u place it over so it appears the same time as the forum loads. I got mine made several months ago but did not know how to this.

U need to create a pre-loader to have it load the same time as your web site.
Create a compressed version about 11kb and then have it load the larger file after. Otherwise the whole site will load before your header.

Best to google this as i havent got time to write a complete tutorial about how to do it.

No problem I think I have it now.
