Can anyone help please... Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥mdtaylorlrim Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Just for kicks why don't you tell us the name of the image you created and what path you uploaded it to... is this the image you want to use?

♥mdtaylorlrim Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 It IS home_bif_img.jpg but the original is still there so you must not have done something right. Try it again.

♥mdtaylorlrim Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 It displayed it for me. BUT, it is a 1mb image file. If you are going to use files sizes over 100k or so you are going to have to exhibit some amount of patience. See if you can reduce the file size and retain the level of detail you will accept then the page will load faster. Community Bootstrap Edition, Edge Avoid the most asked question.
