And the usuall hints and tips:

- read the doc
- read it again
- search the board
- search it again
- when posting try to explain in more then 10 words what your question is about

a static flash banner can be easily inserted by editing themes/yourtheme/template.html

1) I can't see any banner code at all, not even a blank one. Make sure to have absolute paths to your resources, or relative ones seen from the coppermine root folder (not the theme's subfolder).
2) The version you're using appears to be based on cpg1.2.x, not cpg1.3.x - that's why I moved it from the cpg1.3 support board to the cpg1.3 support board. You're recommended to upgrade.

you have some "non-valid" code in your gallery, this is the output (I added some linebreaks to makt the code more readible):
Code Select
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html dir="{lang_dir}">
<head>
<title>Alvin I Ducre Jr Digital Photography - Home</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset={charset}" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/hardwired/style.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
<p>
<body>
</p>
<table width="778" height="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="778" height="61" valign="middle" align="right" background="themes/hardwired/images/hw_01.gif">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000" id="obj1" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" border="0" width="768" height="122">
<param name="movie" value="coppermine/images/worldmap.swf">
<param name="quality" value="High">
<embed src="coppermine/images/worldmap.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="obj1" width="768" height="122">
</object>
<table width="73%" height="32" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
Apart from the double <body> sections, the reason for the flash file not being shown is a wrong link: coppermine/images/worldmap.swfin
Code Select
<param name="movie" value="coppermine/images/worldmap.swf">points to http://www.aducrejr.com/gallery/coppermine/images/worldmap.swf, which of course doesn't exist ::)...

Joachim

P.S. Change
Code Select
<html dir="{lang_dir}">to
Code Select
<html dir="{LANG_DIR}">and
Code Select
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset={charset}" />to
Code Select
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset={CHARSET}" />
P.P.S. You should really upgrade to cpg1.3.2

Code:
<param name="movie" value="coppermine/images/worldmap.swf">points to http://www.aducrejr.com/gallery/coppermine/images/worldmap.swf, which of course doesn't exist ...

I change coppermine to gallery

http://www.aducrejr.com/gallery/images/worldmap.swf

changed code still having issues

www.aducrejr.com/gallery

I only edited template.php. Is there another file that needs to be edited or added for this to work?

this is basically an html issue, you have to understand how relative and absolute paths work. Change
Code Select
<param name="movie" value="gallery/images/worldmap.swf">to
Code Select
<param name="movie" value="/gallery/images/worldmap.swf">and you should be fine. I suggest you take a look into some good html tutorial, e.g. http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
You shouldn't have all code in template.html in one line (this is probably caused by some silly editor you're using), reading the source code in http://www.aducrejr.com/gallery/themes/hardwired/template.html is a pain...
