My admin assistant runs an ATV site. I dont recall her saying it cost anything. I'll check and post her response.

Once again I have embraced my addiction and have put off the moral dilemma to another day.





Thanks FBR, can you get the name of her site for me?
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."
try this site.
You need a server or a host,
MySQL
PHP
and this software. It kicks ass. All of this is free
You can buy a book at Barnes and noble on PHP and MySQL.
Or, there are a million sites that will set it up and admin it cheaply.





Thanks, I got it up and going. http://mudgrippersatv.com/forums/index.php
I just can't figure out how to change the logo!
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."
The logo is a file named . logo_phpBB.gif
Create a gif image with the same pixel dimensions and replace the logo_phpBB.gif file on your server sub directory.





Ok I get that but I can't figure it out, where is the server sub directory? I think I know what your talking about but still cant find where I replace the logo.
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."
it should be under a subdirectory called \images or do a search for it. Are you hosting the forum or are you uploading it? Can you do a search for the file?
