Channel image on view_video.tpl

[l1some]

This is the code that shows the channel name on the view_video.tpl. I would like the assigned channel image to show instead of the name.

{insert name=video_channel assign=channel vid=$VID}
{section name=k loop=$channel}
{$channel[k].name}
{/section}

This is the code in the channel.tpl that shows the images for each channel.

[img]{$baseurl}/chimg/{$answers[i].CHID}.jpg[/img]

any help would be great :)

One thing to consider when using graphics in place of text, there are, actually, blind and visually impaired people who do use the internet. Most of them have their computers set to "read" out loud what's on their screen for them. I would recommend, in addition to using the channel image, that you also place the text for it somewhere near it, once it's found out how to get this to work.

If a designer uses a graphic instead of text, the visually impaired person's computer won't be able to read this out loud to the person. Text is definitely preferred and highly recommended to use rather than graphics whenever possible. Using text instead of images to convey a message also speeds page loads and reduces bandwidth usage.
