how to make rank images appear?

Post by philwill30 »

My forum is located at http://www.chiefcornstalkdistrict.com/forum

I have attempted to attach rank images to the ranks that i assign on my page, I have the right location and everything typed in, and can see the picture when i go to edit the rank details. However when someone posts, the picture is not seen. In IE it gives you the little red X meaning that it cant get the picture, what do i do?

Hey world I finally figured it out, first you have to upload your pics into your forum images directory, say you have worldmafia.thesmokylounge.com/forum, you would have to load them to your /forum/images directory.

Then you can go to your administration panel and go to ranks, ( I have a feeling you have played with this already) **** edit or create a rank, when it asks for the picture, DONT put /image/whatever.jpg , DO put, /forum/images/whatever.jpg

Is that helpful?
