Themes / changeable system logo help, please

« on: December 15, 2016, 06:37:25 AM »

hello, i'm needing a little help, with the layout i started building a little while ago.
i'm looking to be able to allow the user to select what system logo they want, so that the user is able to add logos of their choice or use the ones supplied.
i've been looking at other layouts, but as soon as i come across one i thing may be able to help me, i add it to the nut file but it breaks something along the way

thanks in advance
