Re: would like to change banner (logo.gif)

If yours is named logo.gif you can simply over write the logo that is in includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/images/logo and in /images and it will change it automatically. You will also need to look at includes/languages/YOURTEMPLATE/header.php that is where the filename and the size are defined.

hope that helps

Can you convert your jpeg to a Gif? That may be a simpler way.
