adding logo to banner

Post by fs_23 »

Hi,

I've seen there have been quite a few posts already how to add an image/logo to the banner. My problem is that when i add the line of code to include a background image, I have both the background image (as I wanted) and the name of the blog (as defined in the general settings) as html on top if it.

My question now: what am I making wrong? I'm using a modified version of the idea template which has no index.tpl file (if that info is relevant...)

Hi!

In that case you would either need to edit your index.tpl file to remove the text within the banner, or if you want to stay plain CSS, you need to use "color: transparent" or place the text 1000px to the left or something like that to "hide" it.

(If your template does not have a index.tpl, just copy the one from default/ into your template directory and modify it then)

I copied the index.tpl into my directory and edited that. Now it works. Thanks a lot for your reply. Glad I chose serendipity :)
