Thanks very much for your help, but...heres another one CORWINGS i think you can help me out here.. I have managed to actually copy/paste the correct way,however when you look at the front page i want to have just a button to take me to the forum instead of the flashing icon (is this possible) and i may be wrong but should i create a link to enable me to do that

Oh, changing it is easy. But I know nothing about the wizard. Nothing.

Does it allow you to go in an edit the HTML? If it does, simply replace
http://assets.bravenet.com/cp/forum.gif
with
button.gif

(button.gif being the name of your button)
If not, I haven't got a clue.
