You dont need a hack for this. You just have to edit two templates, and this can be achived. You can even have both on and off status icons.

It would be better to have JUST one icon, with different trasparency when on and off ...

gmarik, thats only just more work, then you have to encorporate a bit of code in conjunction with GD to do this and not all servers have GD, this is very simple and effective. Having more than 1 icon is more versatile anyway.

You can use dhtml/javascript to change the transparency too, dont really need GD. GD would be the radiculas way of doing this.

here you go boofo, forgot you were after this.

You'd have to write this line of code for each forum then, right? That could get pretty long if you want to use different images for each forum. ;)

nope just add it to your "forumhome_forumbit_level2_post" template, the most you'd have to do is have the images in the right directory and named correctly.

What is this for then?

it's for if you wanted all the forums in the bears den to bear an image, instead of all the forums on the forumhome.

How did you know about the Bear's Den? Have you been peeking? ;)

Ahhh, ok, that makes sense now. Thank you for explaining it to me. ;)
