You need to upload it too a website, not from your PC

how do i do that?

Right click on the image, and open it in internet explorer. Take that link and upload it to the forum banner thing.

If that donesn't work (and it probably wont) put the picture on a website and then plug in that link.

There is probably a better way but I don't know it.

simply attach it to one of your posts and then link it

plus, I think it have to be an .jpg or a .gif extension to work, not a .psp

OMG, we seriously need a thread for this....

You have to upload the picture you want...

Attach the picture you want on a post then link the url with the img tag...

It is advisable that you do not use attachments as banners. It adds extra unneccessary queries to the forums. Which strains the MySQL side of the server.

While they can be okay for attachments that are only ever used in a thread, because it only opens it when it is requested from the thread. Banner attachments load everytime the banner is seen.

The reason you see some banners with thousands of views is because it's being viewed every post by that person, by every person here.

Yes, I understand that was a long post...
