They disappear because you've deleted them from the server.

Just simply upload your new post icons & you can do 1 of the following:

1. upload your post icons & add them in admincp
2. upload your post icons with the exact same name & extension overwriting the old ones

providing you still have the style on your computer, you can simply upload the images/icons folder to your server

make sure the icons you've uploaded have the same name & extension as the ones previously

what you advise me ? upgrade or restore

here is my advice! if you restore or upgrade you wont get your old skin back, and you will have your default skin right so instead of that I give you a alternative

First step:

check you uploaded rightly and u are sure u done it rightly

then step two:

go to style and templates---> download or upload styles---> Title for Uploaded Style = "some name"----> click import

and you will have your new vbulletin default skin

then go to vbulletin options style and language settings set your new skin to default

check if its displaying all the things rightly

if it does not work then restore

but its useless..

just remove the files and load up new vbulletin and point the config to your database and install the forums

why would u need the database? but yes for security reasons take a back up.
