Please go easy with me, this is the first time i've created a forum so it's going to be a learning curve!!!! I know it's rough at the moment but i thought it better to get a forum started where people can get accurate information. All help and suggestions more than welcome.

Anything you struggle with on the site, from putting pictures up to settings, let me know here and I will post a reply. Good luck with it, sure it will be a success. It takes a lot of time, effort and keeping calm with the computer when first setting up a proboard. Don't laugh I helped set up an Elvis site (no fan I can assure you) and a few others.

Thanks broker. Much appreciated. I could do with some help with how to put photo's in the header and background. I can do most things with a pc including build them but have no knowledge of building forums or web sites. I will try and learn some html code etc if i get some spare time. And i'll go to the track and take some up to date photo's.

Hi David, it's a bit tricky but I will make it easy as possible. First job after taking the photo's you want is to store them at Photobucket. Its free to use and simple to download. One tip name the first photo as valleylogo and second as valleybackground. www.photobucket.com is the website address. Once you have successfully uploaded and saved the two photo's I will post further instructions once checked with proboards that nothing changed in process.

David, just tested it and works fine.
Log back into your photobucket account. At your valleylogo photo select Get URL's and copy all the text in the Direct Link box and then go back to your admin section on your proboard above and inside the LOGO box, paste the Direct Link you copied and at bottom of form click modify and then F5 to refresh and hey presto !!
Repeat for background selecting other photo repeat process.
If you want me help you change colour or position I will write you some code, but let's get the logo and background up first.
Good luck and I shall logon over weekend to be impressed.
