Ok, this is my current banner on my forum... http://www.acura-legend.com/vbulletin/images/bannermain3.jpg
I plan on making another banner with a different Legend on it.
Is it possible to make it where my users can choose from two or more top banners?
Do you know what I mean?
I could have it where somehow in their settings, they choose one or the other to display...
I really want/need this for my forum.
Let me know.
Thank you.

You can make 1 parent style and base another style on this one (add child style).
They are then the same, inherit all the changes, etc. Only goto the stylevar settings and replace the banner with the one for that new child style. Users can now goto the footer of the pages (if you give them this permission)_ or to the user control panel and switch between the styles.

Ok, where do I make the one parents style/add the child style?
They are then the same, inherit all the changes, etc. Do you mean that their url properties will both be http://www.acura-legend.com/vbulletin/images/bannermain3.jpg ??

I would rather it be something that they select in their user cp. Is there a way that I can make it where they select which one they want to use when they first register?
Thank you for all of your help Floris.

Help on styles & templates can be found on the on-line manual here: http://www.vBulletin.com/docs/html
When you add a style, it will let you pick 'based on ..' a parent style is based on 'none' and a child style is based on an existing parent style.
A child style is a copy of the parent style, after which you can change elements, like the banner.
If you allow users to select between styles, they can do this in the user control panel, like I mentioned before. It will also show in the footer of each page. Unless you remove it from the template.
No, you can't have a user pick the style during registration.

Ok, thanks. Let me read over this and think about it.
Do you have any links to any forums that have what I am wanting so I can get an idea..?
Thank you again.
