Is it possible to use this on Invision 3.3? I couldn't find the file... so much has changed. Thanks

Found the solution for 3.3:

Use the "Easy Logo Changer" at least once, doesn't matter what image you upload. (Admin, Look & Feel, Easy Logo Changer, change the logo on the skin you wish to use)

- Then, open the defaultHeader in GlobalTemplates (Admin, Look & Feel, Manage Skin Sets & Templates, Manage Templates & CSS of the skin you wish to use)
Find:

<a href='{$this->settings['board_url']}' title='{$this->lang->words['go_home']}' rel="home" accesskey='1'><img src='{parse replacement="logo_img"}' alt='{$this->lang->words['logo']}' /></a>

and change that to

<a href='{$this->settings['board_url']}' title='{$this->lang->words['go_home']}' rel="home" accesskey='1'><img src='http://netdna.invisionmodding.com//public/style_images/invisionmodding/banners/logo{parse expression="(rand(1,16))"}.jpg' alt='{$this->lang->words['logo']}' /></a>

In the example above, (rand(1,16) indicated you wish to use 16 random images. You can use any number, depending on the amount of imagines you have!
Name your images logo1.jpg, logo2.jpg, etc...

Next, create a folder named "banners" in your public/style_images/(folder of your skin).
Upload your banner images to that folder.

Enjoy your ever changing forum
