 * hi,
 * I am trying to use the conditional tags. Basically I want to say that if it is
   the page About choose this image with a $bannerimg. So, where do I insert that
   $bannerimg in my code?
 *  <?php if ( is_page(‘about’)) {
    $bannerimg = about.jpg’; } else { $bannerimg
   = ‘home.jpg’;} ?>
 *  ???????? <img src=”$bannerimg” align=”right” /> ???????

 * use a php echo function to output the $bannerimg:

 * where is the image folder?
 * the full code depennds on the image location;
    to start, try:
 *     ```
       <?php if ( is_page('about')) {
       $bannerimg = 'about.jpg';
       } else {
       $bannerimg = 'home.jpg';}
       ?>
   
       <img src="<?php echo $bannerimg; ?>" align="right" />
       ```
   
 * as this is likely not to work, try for the last line:
 * `<img src="http://full_path_to_image_folder/<?php echo $bannerimg; ?>" align="
   right" />`
