Upload your image to the catalog/images/ directory

Open and find this in your includes/header.php file and put your image in the row :

 

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr class="header">

<td valign="middle"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'oscommerce.gif', 'osCommerce') . '</a>'; ?></td>

<td align="right" valign="bottom"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_account.gif', HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT) . '</a>  <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_cart.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS) . '</a>  <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_checkout.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT) . '</a>'; ?>  <a href="http://www.davidwashere.com" target="_blank"><img src="/catalog/images/yourimage.jpg" border="0"></a></td>

and you added it after this :

<td align="right" valign="bottom"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_account.gif', HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT) . '</a>  <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_cart.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS) . '</a>  <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_checkout.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT) . '</a>'; ?>  < add the code here!!! ></td>

Hi David,

 

Here is the code with the piece added. I have left the added code in. I hope this helps

 

Your web site is down.

Are you syaing that this does not work :

<td align="right" valign="bottom"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_account.gif', HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT) . '</a> <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART) . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_cart.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS) . '</a> <a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL') . '">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'header_checkout.gif', HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT) . '</a>'; ?> <a href="http://www.vancomsex.com/yabb" target="_blank"><img src="/catalog/images//images.jpg" border="0"></a></td>

 

The only type I see is that you have 2 forward slashses pointing to your images.

Can you hit your image like this :

http://www.vancomsex.com/catalog/images/images.jpg

 

If not - then you have the wrong path, or the ilmage does not exist.

The site is back up, I changed the code to point to src="/images/images.jpg"

the image can been seen at www.vancomsex.com/images/images.jpg

Do you think it could be because i have a non-standard heading image? if so, how can i get around this? perhaps i have to put the pic in the right colum, but i tried this and could not see it either. I tried to set the image up as a banner but it appears at the bottom of the page.

I really appretiate you helpng me out here David, Thanks a million!
