Here is the letter that explains how to change the banner. Maybe it will work... Dear USGenWeb coordinators, For those of you with pages hosted on RootsWeb.com we wanted to give you an update on our plan for including a small masthead at the top of hosted pages on RootsWeb. We love being able to host your page and other pages that help the family history community so much, and adding this small masthead to acknowledge our hosting service allows us to continue to be able to offer this free hosting service as well as other services. The mastheads will be included on pages as early as May 21st. The standard masthead can be viewed here: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/rootsweb/samples_mastheads/masthead_General.jpg As a USGenWeb coordinator you will also have the option to use a USGenWeb specific masthead. It can be viewed here: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/rootsweb/samples_mastheads/masthead_USGenWeb.jpg To get the USGenWeb masthead on your page instead of the standard one all you need to do is place a file named 'banner_select' in your public_html directory. It should contain the text 'USGENWEB' (all caps and without the quotation marks) and nothing else. <snip> On Sun, Apr 5, 2015 at 12:20 PM, Joy Fisher via <[email protected]> wrote: > ARRRGH Just tried adding that file and it does not work anymore > > > On Sunday, April 5, 2015 10:09 AM, Genealogy via <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Mike > > I could only find one county with the USGenWeb/Rootsweb banner.
