@muskeeto He is actually making use of this forum as it was meant to be used. If you have the answer, provide it. DONT INSULT THOSE LESS KNOWLEDGEABLE, it gives the impression you dont really know the answer and dont even know that much about computers and would rather cover it with mockery and insults.

He's asking for assistance to add a banner to his forum.
Then wants us to 'spam' his forum.

and u xpect me to be courteous?

If one needs a solution, there's a way to present the problem.

Alright, to avoid any confusion or arguments,(and with my tiny hope of making MOD grin) I'm sorry.
Can you please rephrase your question, cos it look like you're asking for free traffic?
Re: How To Customize A Forum by fd4all234(m): 10:22pm On May 27, 2011

Highly uncalled for, in a properly functioning forum YOU would be banned.

@mrperfect its smf i am using, how can i design it ?
Re: How To Customize A Forum by mrperfect(m): 12:51pm On May 30, 2011
Design the Logo size you want and upload it to your images folder using FTP.
Then, log into your admin section of your forum. Under configuration click Current Theme when it opens under Theme options and Preferences you will see Logo image URL put your ulr which will be: yourwebaddress.com/images/yourlogoname.theextention


Hope this helps?

Update your forum and mods with latest version, concerning bot posting there are many mods in the smf mod section to stop or control that depends on what you want to do.
