[HOW-TO] Make your Welcome Headers an image!

Not possible. It will get distorted.

Create your image [with text in it] with a transparent background,
and then use some art / design or something like that as a repeating background.

Ahhh...ok, thanks

Yours looks excellent, care to do one for me?

Is it still a benefit to replace the welcome headers with an image? I ask this because it seems that the only place on the forum that I see the welcome headers are on the forum home page when logged in as a guest.

I seem to recall that the welcome header used to be shown on all pages when logged in as a guest.

I would appreciate some clarification on this.

My welcome headers show on all pages to guests..

I think mine are not showing as I am using the vBSEO Style 1.0 modification.

Are you guys pretty confident that bigG can't read text in images yet? I thought I recalled reading something a long time ago now that they were rolling that out. Maybe it hasn't happened. Anyhow, in my implementation I say "Registered users do not see these ads", referring to ads above the welcome messsage, and I am a bit concerned that Google might somehow discover the words ads in the image and not understand that it doesn't instruct members to click them.

Is there anything to this, or is it a Sarah Conner style paranoid delusion?

The new Welcome Headers mod doesnt have a vboptions menu....so what do we do to get this to work?

I would recommand to use default vbulletin notices system for this...

the new welcome headers product sets up the notices built into vb automatically for you. expand the notices menu on the left of the ACP and edit them there...

Thanks, I decided to remove the headers as im using his LGV mod.....

i have the mod installed but when i try to edit a phrase in it, the plugin says phrase not found

if you installed the new welcome header, you edit it in the notice manager.

first post should be updated to reflect this change in the mods setup.
