ashley...

thanks to your help i was able to get the image to display (prior to your suggestion i was entering the code inside {literal} tags).

EDIT:

i edited out a smarty error i was receiving after implementing your suggestion... after a few minutes of posting it disappeared. all is good. now to get it centered. i'm assuming something along the lines of a simple html center code will do. correct?

EDIT:

got it centered with simple <center> tags.

Thanks again Ashley! You Rock!
