    I just made some pictorial guides in an FAQ section for starting threads/adding pictures etc and link that when required and also push it to new members in a welcome message on signup

    XF 2.2 Metadata logo, same as the Favicon browser logo?

    Normally it would be in the root folder of your web directory and have the name favicon.ico Do you have FTP access to your webserver, that would make it easy to look at folder contents etc ?
