Thanks for your reply amiman. I had exactly the same question as JPMiddleton.
I have located the code (I think!) for the header graphic on my default template phpLD in the header.tpl folder...

<div class="headerLogo">
<a href="{$smarty.const.DOC_ROOT}/"><img src="{$smarty.const.DOC_ROOT}/templates/{$smarty.const.USE_TEMPLATE}/images/logo.gif" border="0" alt="logo" /></a>

I am assuming (despite my almost zero knowledge of css and html) that the line of code which needs to be overwritten with a new header graphic and logo is: <img src="{$smarty.const.DOC_ROOT}/templates/{$smarty.const.USE_TEMPLATE}/images/logo.gif" border="0" alt="logo" /></a>

If this is the case, do you think it is achievable by someone like myself with virtually no programming knowledge, as I don't really have a clue as to how to overwrite it, or is it best left to be outsourced to an experienced coder?

The phpLD site which I have just built by myself and am trying to change the header text is at: bouncycastlehire-uk.co.uk

Many thanks for any help.

Kind regards

Hi Mark all you need to do is design a new logo.

Best thing to do is open your template graphic folder and open the image logo.gif then alter to suit and save as logo.gif and upload to your template graphics folder

all that code is doing is calling the image from the template/images folder, you should not need anybody to do it.

Hi amiman,
Many thanks for your reply - it's greatly appreciated.
I should be able to do this.

Hi JPMiddleton,
I now know how to change the header text on my phpLD. I am a newbie, and it is very easy, but you need to know what you are doing to the code. If you are still stuck - just post on this thread and I will talk you through it step by step.

Thanks again for raising this question. It has really helped me.

Best regards
