Hello everyone.

Just new to vBulletin and almost anything to do with building a website,although I did manage to upload vBulletin with an FTP (FileZilla) after many hours.

My quesion is. How do I change things like the vBulletin logo in the top left hand coroner, the color of the site and little things like wording in the very top lefthand side of the web browser?

I will also want to have banner ads placed at the top of threads and and along the side of the page, is this possible?

The other issue, am I better off wating for the Gold release of vB as I will have the CMS and all of that.

Thank you in advance.

You're really need to read through this: http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/
And to change your logo/style you go to "Styles & Templates" in the admin panel.

Yes, because the template system will be changing from tables to CSS in the new version and you would have to re-learn it.

Thanks for the reply Malachi.

Does anyone know of a professional service that will "create" my forum? Such as change logo, color of website and things such as that? I am more concerned about getting hits to my site playing around with SEO and doing the design of logos, and setting up deals for having banner ads placed, so I would much rather have someone who can do the tech stuff in the background for me.
