6. Set Default: "Yes, but No First Blank Option"
7. Display Order should be left as is since it auto increments.
8. (complete the last options as you wish)
9. Which page displays this option?: "Options: Other"
10. Repeat 1 to 9 another two times so as to create a "2nd" and "3rd".
    
    Result: Member Options
    
    
    
11. Style & Templates >> Style Manager
12. On the Animesuki Default style select Add Child Style, you may call it what you wish.
13. On this new style select Common Templates. Now your attention around the <!--logo--> comment; the code for the rotation system should be there.

[How to] Insert Profile Field Value

The following is a primitive code demo based on default skin to show necessary code:

<!-- logo -->
<a name="top">
1st banner: 
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0">contest choice 1st</if><if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] != 0">$bbuserinfo[field7]</if> <br />
2nd banner: 
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0">contest choice 2nd</if><if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] != 0">$bbuserinfo[field8]</if> <br />
3rd banner: 
<if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0">contest choice 3rd</if><if condition="$bbuserinfo['userid'] != 0">$bbuserinfo[field9]</if>
</a>
<!-- /logo -->

I have field7, field8, field9 but you will have higher numbers most likely. See: User Profile Fields, for actual IDs of the fields.
(and, I do know there is a <else /> option for the <if>)
