Replace title image with flash object

Guide:

Edit this template:

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Templates -> logo_block

Replace the title image code:

			<div id="logo"><a href="{$logoLink}">
				<span><xen:comment>This span fixes IE vertical positioning</xen:comment></span>
				<img src="@headerLogoPath" alt="{$xenOptions.boardTitle}" />
			</a></div>

With a flash object, like so:

			<div id="logo">
				<span><xen:comment>This span fixes IE vertical positioning</xen:comment></span>
				<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/
cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" width="468" height="60" id="mymoviename">
				<param name="movie" value="example.swf" />
				<param name="quality" value="high" />
				<param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" />
				<embed src="example.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="468" height="60" name="mymoviename" align="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer">
				</embed>
				</object>
			</div>

You need to replace both instances of example.swf with the location of your flash file. You can set the width and height in the code (two instances of width="468" height="60"). There are also two instances of bgcolor if you need a background color.

Then you also need to set this height appropriately:

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Style Properties -> Header and Navigation -> Height of Header Logo
