Question Themes, Shoutbox and a few other Q's

Hi all,

I'm using v3.6.1 and want to add a new theme as the default vb colours are a bit plain. How would i upload something new and would it cause problems with any posts already up?

I having been reading about the shoutbox and like the idea of having one of those but is there a bullet proof version? I have read pages of posts and i'm a bit confused now!

I have massive files to upload. Currently 8mb is about the max I can do and would like to be able to do 30mb. I'm on a shared server so can you suggest anything?

I have also seen that people have a default FAQ template that usually says:

If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ by clicking the link above. You may have to register before you can post: click the register link above to proceed. To start viewing messages, select the forum that you want to visit from the selection below.

Where would I go to add this and can I create my own?

I have a banner in .swf format that I need to link to the forum. How do I do that?

I'd appreciate any help or tips you have to offer.

Thanks

1. Installation instructions are included with the skin
2. vB Shout 2.1
3. Contact your host and ask them to up the limit
4. I don't get you...
5. You need to add the link to the flash file

Thanks Rogersnm.

What I mean by question 4 is basically how would i add welcome text to the forum home page. I think I've solved this problem by downloading a welcomehedders hack.

Can I get a scrolling rss feed that show the last 10 updates on the site?

Thanks

You can just adjust the template/phrase before but the edit in welcome headers deletes that part.

As for (b) do you mean the latest 10 posts?
