smfLogo.gif

Afternoon All!   

I've always had a poor quality smfLogo.gif on my Forum and never got round to fixing it, I decided to have a go today and then was reminded why I couldn't fix it in the first place! I can't get smooth text in a gif file. 

1. How do I create a gif file with nice / smooth text?
2. Somewhere else in this Forum it says 2.0 uses a smflogo.PNG file, mine is still a .gif file - how do I change it to look at a .png file?

Thanks,
MbM

Well, yes, as far as I'm aware SMF2.0.x uses png file, indeed. Not sure which SMF version you're using.
You can open your index.template.php from your themes folder and seek for something like:

Code Select Expand

<img id="smflogo" src="' . $settings['images_url'] . '/smflogo.png" alt="Simple Machines Forum" title="Simple Machines Forum" />
or actually, just search for "smflogo.gif" in your case, and change it to whatever you want

SMF 2.0.15

Code Select Expand

<div id="mainframe"', !empty($settings['forum_width']) ? ' style="width: ' . $settings['forum_width'] . '"' : '', '>
    <div class="tborder">
        <div class="catbg">
            <img class="floatright" id="smflogo" src="', $settings['images_url'], '/smflogo.gif" alt="Simple Machines Forum" />
            <h1 id="forum_name">';

That's exactly what you should change, just change .gif to .png and upload new image to your themes images folder.
