How can I replace the tagline text with an image?

Hi folk,

This should be easy, but that means I can't figure it out.

In languages/english/header.php I have...

  define('HEADER_ALT_TEXT', '');
  define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', 'my tagline text');
  define('HEADER_LOGO_WIDTH', '130');
  define('HEADER_LOGO_HEIGHT', '270');
  define('HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE', 'TDP_logo_med.jpg');

I should be able to simply make a GIF, put it in the same folder as my logo, change the tagline text to the name of the GIF (just like in the logo line above) and that'll work, right? Nope! I just got the alt text for the GIF.

I want to do this because I don't like the very generic look of the tagline font. It needs more pizzazz, but you can't depend on others having fancy fonts available on their machines, so I'll use the font I want here and make it a graphic instead.

Can someone clarify for me how to make my GIF appear? (Yes, I did search the forums, and was surprised not to find an answer.)

Thanks,

Rob

define('HEADER_SALES_TEXT', '<img src="images/my_gif.gif" />');

Or you could use the banner manger to place an image in the same area - note: don't use the banners directory - some ad blockers will block the.

Thanks Kim,

I had not used the right format for the image call. I'd left it plain, like the logo call below it. But I guess the difference is that Zen expects the logo to be a graphic and knows where it is, but the tagline is expected to be text, so the image call has to be more specific.

I'll [try to] remember that.
