Upload .swf in the rimage folder
In header.php change to reflect the flash ext.
That should do it

Actually you will probably have to work with an object command to make it work. In the header.php file you will find these lines.
<td id=heading><? $pic = array();
$pic[0]="$CONFIG->siteurl/rimages/header_1.jpg";
$pic[1]="$CONFIG->siteurl/rimages/header_5.jpg";
$pic[2]="$CONFIG->siteurl/rimages/header_6.jpg";
$pic[3]="$CONFIG->siteurl/rimages/header_7.jpg";
$pic[4]="$CONFIG->siteurl/rimages/header_2.jpg";
$pic[5]="$CONFIG->siteurl/rimages/header_8.jpg";
$nr=rand(0,5);
echo"<img src=$pic[$nr] border=0>";?>
These are the lines that pic the random picture for the header. To put in a flash header you will end up with some thing like the below instead of the lines above.
<td><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="690" height="240">
<param name="movie" value="header.swf">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<embed src="intro01.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="690" height="240"></embed></object>
As you can see this includes the link to get the flash player for those few people that don't have it yet. Also if you want this on your join page to make sure you edit the header_locked.php file too.

| I tried that and got the same result.. the page loads everything but my header, then it just hangs when trying to load the header and there is just a big white space where my header is supposed to be. Any other suggestions? |

| Thank you for your help, i was able to figure it out. My header works everywhere now except when i go to the /radmin/ section. When i go there It is still just a white empty space where the header is supposed to be. Is there a seperate area when i need to put in the new header code for the /radmin/ area? |
