 * Hello!
 * I am trying to customize a given function for shortcode about a banner. The banner
   contains a title and a subtitle.But I want to add an image left to the title.
   the function is like this:
 *     ```
       function banner($atts,$content=null){
           ob_start();
       extract(shortcode_atts(array("title" => '', 'subtitle'=>'', 'type'=> ''), $atts));
   
           if($type == 2){
       	   return '<div id="banner" class="banner-2">
                   <div class="site-slogan">
                       <div class="slogan-inner clearfix">
                           <h2>'.$title.'</h2>
                           <h2>'.$subtitle.'</h2>
                       </div>
                   </div>
               </div>';
           }
       ```
   
 * I want to insert <img src=”…”> so when I want to edit the section(it’s one page
   parallax theme)i will be able to add/change an image dynamically.
    I tried <img
   src=’.$content.’> but it’s not working. Should I add another variable(image) 
   to the function like title and subtitle? of cource i have to customize and the
   css file properly. but all i see in my page is a broken image, which means that
   it doesn’t take the parameter value!
 * I hope someone could help me!

 * The way you have defined the function, $content would be contained between opening
   and closing tags for the shortcode. So, if the shortcode is `[myimage]`, the 
   value of $content would be whatever is between `[myimage]` and `[/myimage]`.
 * You might have better luck making ‘content’ a variable as you suggested.
