I'm trying to add a flash header image to bulletproof purple, I managed to get the image to go away, but can't seem to get a flash file to load in its place!
any help would be greatly appreciated...

A URL to your site would be helpful....
Anyway, background images in the banner/header area are easily accomplished with css or our banner image option in the BP template.
Flash is going to be a different solution. I suggest you search the forums here for "flash" and see if any of that is helpful.
Next, the file you will likely need to edit is /templates/bulletproof/index.tpl. Look for this:
Code: Select all
<div id="serendipity_banner">
<h1><span class="{if $template_option.firbtitle == 'false'}in{/if}visible"><a class="homelink1" href="{$serendipityBaseURL}">{$head_title|@default:$blogTitle|truncate:80:" ..."}</a></span></h1>
<h2><span class="{if $template_option.firbdescr == 'false'}in{/if}visible"><a class="homelink2" href="{$serendipityBaseURL}">{$head_subtitle|@default:$blogDescription}</a></span></h2>
</div>
That is the actual banner container. It will display a blog name and description, if those options are enabled (ie, the <h1> and <h2> tags). That is where you are going to want to use your <object> or <embed> for the flash file (the former being compliant, the latter likely working, but not standards compliant).
