Is there any way to make vB threads change colors like regular vlinks?

[Mithan]

My posters get upset because they can't tell what threads are new, and what arn't. Every other forum I know of changes the color of the link after it has been updated, but vB doesn't that I know.

Are their any hacks that do this? or just any way to do it in general?

Thanks.

That's what the envelope icons on the left do.

Yes, I understand that but is there a way to make the actual text links behave the same way?

most forum that you might know probably uses css to simply show links that have been clicked in a different colors :)

<style type="text/css">
<!--
a:hover { color: #FFFFFF; text-decoration: none}
a:active { text-decoration: blink; color: #FFFFFF}
a:link { text-decoration: none; color: orange }
a:visited { text-decoration: none; color: white}
-->
</style>


you can change the text decoration and color to suit your forum.

just ad it to the header
