replaceing these images
 

im just wondering if anyone has a code or a way
of swopping this image: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2006/07/14.gif

into this image: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2006/07/15.gif

And if so where do i locate this in style manger to change it?

Or templates?

Rename the second one the same as the first one - then upload it to replace the existing one.

i dont no where to locate the images,
i cant seem to find them in templates or style manger,

are you able to tell me where they are and how to upload?

sorry thanks.

The image is located in http://www.yoursite.com/forums/image.../forum_old.gif ... you will need to do as Paul said then ftp the graphic into the forums/images/statusicon folder..

ah so all the images are where i am hosting my forum in me FTP, i'll have a look

And these are from the vB2 Graphics Development Kit.

You can get the entire set and/or find the vB3 Graphics Development Kit in the 'Member Support' link in the Members Area:

http://www.vbulletin.com/members/membersupport.php

Regards,

i have found it i think but all's it says is this:
Default System Setting
No Indexes
Standard Indexing (text only)
Fancy Indexing (graphics)
and then to save, am i in the right place?

You are looking for a FOLDER that is located ON YOUR SERVER in the directory where you have vBulletin installed. It has a group of SUB-FOLDERS in it, one of which is named IMAGES (/images). Inside the IMAGES folder you will find several sub-sub-folders, including:

/avatars
/buttons
/statusicons

The one you are dealing with goes in the /forum/images/statusicons folder.
You have to "upload" the statusicon to YOUR SERVER, with an FTP client or SSH Shell Client and put it into the folder which has your /images/statusicons.

Regards,

thanks

forum_old.gif

ok thanks so if i upload the other image it should appear on me forum?

ok i have uploaded now do i delete the old one?

yes.. you might have to clear cache or reload that image.. but all you will have to do it upload it!

i have uploaded do i just delete now?

like the old one

one is called forum_old.gif
and the other forum_old.gif.gif

I don't know how you got the forum_old.gif.gif .. lol

Name the graphic that you want to upload as forum_old.gif .... nothing else.. just that.. then upload it.. you should get a message asking if you want to overwrite the current file.. say OK.. after you upload your new graphic and see that it is working.. delete that one that says .gif.gif

ok thanks i'll give it a shot ;)



i can not see and over write to click on

Here you go.

Over right this image with the old one. This should fix your problem. Place the image in your /images/statusicon folder. Any furthur help don't hessitate to post back.

To obatin this image (right click save as).

cool thanks but now i have todo the forum new lol.

and the weird thing is the images show on explorer and not fire fox,

i find this strange.

right click on the image in firefox.. click view image... then if the new graphic does not show.. click refresh.. then go back to your page.. they should be changed to the new graphics now.. if not.. click refresh on that page..

ok i'll try that thanks
