I am going out of my mind trying to change the logo in carbon. the main faq page, "how to add custom banner..." is great and very clear, but for some reason it is not working on my site. I attached my theme.tpl to see if anyone can notice what i am doing wrong. i have gone through it for 2 hours now, changing it and then resetting it and then changing it again. i have my logo file in both the main images folder and in the /themes/carbon/images/ folder.

i feel like there is something wrong with the "if" commands... but i don't know enough (anything!) about php... :)

thanks!

the site is here: www.gil-galad.com

That should be a clue.

The intersting thing is all .gif images server by your server give that.
Some poorly configured surver?

very strange, Dave. That was exactly what my problem was/is, though. I had to put the gif in the root folder for it to show up. Not sure why that would happen. I use go-daddy, so it seems it shouldn't be a problem...

Thanks again.

http://www.gil-galad.com/images/gilgaladlogo.gif does not work
http://www.gil-galad.com/gilgaladlogo.gif does.
So I guess you have some .htaccess file in the images directory?

Yep. I have an htaccess file in there. it reads:

DirectoryIndex .htaccess
SetHandler Gallery_Security_Do_Not_Remove
Options None
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine off
</IfModule>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all

php_value post_max_size 12M
php_value upload_max_filesize 12M

I can't make heads nor tails of that! :)

remove that file and see if it works.
if it does not ask you host why you can't get to :

Hi All,

As this is the Carbon Theme, there is a field in the Theme Setup that can put the path or URL for your logo. I have tried that and it is definitely working.

Cheers
