On my forum I have news posted in a forum. it is then put as headlines on top of the main forum summary page.

u can see it here
http://www.scifichat.net/vbforums/

What I want is if the news is NEW since a member last arrived, it puts a little @NEW@ picture next to the headline. or if thats impossible, it puts the new picture next to the headline if it was created in the past 24 hours.

Thanx

Simple Terms then. :)

When a member logs in, if the news is new, it puts a graphic next to the headline. If they have already read it, it doesn't.
The code is there because it does that for New Posts. I just don't know how to incorpate it into my little headline.

Thanx for any help you can offer. :)

Just few clues.

Modify that news query so it selects also "isnew" variable.
SELECT thread.*,IF(dateline>$bbuserinfo[lastvisit],1,0) AS isnew FROM thread
This variable will hold 1 if it is fresh thread so you can use it to conditionally fill e.g. $newpicture variable with @NEW@ image.
