Interesting....I designed an animated banner for our forum in Photoshop and uploaded it to Photobucket. It works fine on other sites (such as photobucket) and when viewed in a browser, but does not work on the forum???

Go figure...Sorry no help here, but maybe it's related?

well thats what i dont understand , coz i always got swf as banner ..
but doesnt work anymore .

"animated" could be a .gif , thats what we got on forum atm.

well does someone use .swf as banner ?

its east just upload your swf (banner) to

http://www.swfupload.com/

then post the direct link on your forum banner adress

Okey i found how to do

Go to ADminCP> general> configuration>site description

and put that code

Code:

<embed src="HTTP://URL OF YOUR LOGO.SWF" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="200"></embed>


and it works
