Editting/Using A Sponsor Image



To use a sponsor image of your own follow these instructions
NB: LowPingNoLag.co.uk will show as default unless you edit the image as instructed below.



1) Create an image in an image editting package (such as Photoshop, or Paint if you like).

2) The image must be 256x128, other than that, the content can be whatever you wish.

3) When saving, the image must be a jpg, and below 100kb in size... you don't want everyone downloading massive files just to play on your server... smaller file size the better.

4) Upload your image to the web. Make it somewhere that allows the url to end in ".jpg" and that has a short(ish) url, because 128 characters is the maximum allowed for the url. There are plenty of places that'll let you host images for free, eg Photobucket or ImageShack... just use Google and you'll find somewhere easily if you don't have your own hosting.

5) Next, go to the mods root folder and open up the "motd.txt" file in a text editor, such as notepad.

6) At the very bottom of the MOTD, the last thing your write, write the URL to your image.

7) If you have a dedicated server, upload the new motd.txt file

8) Go on your server and view the new sponsor image 




NB: if you want an image hosting, ask at the DragonballSource.com forums, someone there will be glad to help you out, plus it'll be a ood way of advertising your server also.
