How Do I delete the FREE FORUM tag below on my phb2 forum, and also add Social Bookmark Code?

Hi, after waiting for months and months on template editing for phb3, I decided to switch to phb2.
How Do I Make the Bottom Links Disappear???
The free forum tage below does not make our forums look professional. Visitors and guests wont take the forum serious if it shows FREE...I'm taking of replacing the FREE FORUM tag into a personal one, i.e,''Powered By Stallion'', or something of that nature..
Can any one help please?

P.s...How Do We Add Social Bookmark Tags into our forums?

Any help will be greatly appreciated..

admin, display, than under templates click the general tab, than youll find it in the overall footer. just remember you have to leave a link the the www.phpbb.com site on there somewhere. you will find all the other stuff towards the bottom, just mess around with it and remove the things, just dont publish it until its how u want it. theres a little box and arros next to the waiting which u can click to see a preview.

i have contacted various sites to host their banner on my site, or swap banners. most sites will do it since it basically get them more free advertisement. try that with the places your trying to swap with.

please I need answers...

depends where your wanting to put links to other sites at. i used a forum widget and resized banners down for the sites to link to and have them there, i also have them listed in the foot, without banners, but just the url like: Yahoo.com - Google.com - ETC....
