Could Someone Help Me With This???

Sorry, I'm totally inept when it comes to most things computer, and totally inept when it comes to ALL things art, so needless to say my only option in modifying my games to look better come from downloads. However, in a ABA league I DL recently I discovered some things that can be done to the html pages in game. I was able to download the MLB.COM banners and make them work properly on my MLB home page, both top and bottom, as well as the MLB player background in the bottom. However, I can't for the life of me figure out how to make logos appear at the top. I thought it would be cool to maybe have the American League logo on the left and the National League logo on the right as the logos appear in the picture below. Can anyone walk me through step by step on how to do this??? Or is is too complex to walk through??? If you look at my circles and arrows, that is the extent of my expertise in a graphics program, I can draw like a kid with a crayon.

You can only have one logo that is used on both the left and right side. I have a league named 'New England Baseball League (NEBL)' that I made a logo for. The file is named 'New England Baseball League.png' Don't use underscores. Place it in C:\Documents and Settings\YourName\My Documents\Sports Interactive\OOTP Baseball 2007\data\saved_games\NEBL Game.lg\news\html\images folder.

You would need a png file named 'American Baseball Association.png' saved in your ABA Game.lg\news\html\images folder.

You can do this for any minor leagues also.

Thank you for your help, it is greatly appreciated. So I take it you mean just having an image file in the images folder named the same name as your league it will pick it up automatically??? Wow, I never thought of that, as I thought I would have to edit some .tpl files or something, something I've never done before. I'll try this immediately, and again, I can't thank you enough. For folks like me, well, lets just say I think I speak for lots of others too who appreciate you guys that help walk us through troubles. thanks again.

You are very welcome. Using capital letters is akin to shouting but in this case I can tell you are very happy and it's acceptable. LOL.

One of your players is named 'Tony Perkins'. Is his nickname 'Psycho'? If you are truly an OFG then you'll get the reference.

Hehe, yeah, I know the reference, in fact I'm probably one of the few who insists that the original was much, much better than the remake, but hey, I'm old, so sue me.

Funny thing was though I didn't notice one Mr. Perkins until your post. So, a couple of keystrokes in commish mode, and voila.
