How do I change the big PHPBB Logo?

How do I change the big PHPBB Logo (the one at the top that comes with all of them when you first get them.)

Thanks!

replace the logo image within the templates/subsilver/images folder with your own

I can think of two ways off the top of my head to do this.

First you could always cheat and overwrite the phpBB logo with your file by putting your logo in the same directory and having it go by the same name. Simple, easy and it works.

OR

You could do like I did and go into the templates, and find the overall_header.tpl and point the image link for the logo over to your picture wherever you have it located at. The tpl files are pretty standard html so if you know html it should not be a big problem. The entire key to how your forum looks is within the tpl files.


*edit* I was beaten to answer number one!

Okay so I got a phpbb forum through BlueHost admin control panel... I don't see where it says templates/subsilver/images or overall_header.tpl ... I am a newbie to this though.

It's not in the forum itself. Go into your bluehost control panal and go into your forum directory(folder). There should be a folder in that that says templates. Go into it. Then go into the subsilver folder. You will find all the tpl files located in there. If you just want to relace that logo with yours go into the images folder that will be sitting in the subsilver folder. The phpbb logo that you could overwrite is in there.

I think that is all the correct directions without looking.

Thanks! That did the trick.
