[resolved] Flash Banners in my theme? (3 posts)

    I am using a theme I downloaded. I currently have my banners installed (top, bottom and (6) 125x125 in a box) but they are currently in an animated gif format which makes them larger than if they were in a swf file. In the theme dashboard where it asks for the image location I point to the swf file I uploaded but it never loads. So for now i'm using the gif. Any pointers on getting the flash files to work?

    The domain is http://www.mylocalinteractive.com

    Thanks.

    You have to supply the full path to the file. Relative paths won't work. if the image is supplied form within a post, then us the uploader to put it in for you. If it's in your theme files, then use:

    <?php bloginfo('template_directory') ?>/images/file.swf">

    to put in the correct path.
