I have strength for code new mod :D

I need This for 3.8 anybody got?

3.8 have many mod the same it man

ok,please post it now :) Thanks so much

I think we already have this option by default, correct me if i m wrong.

After trying many ways and it not working, this mod worked a treat

many thanks

would i just replce the 48 with say 100 to show a bigger image ?

thank you installed

yes. this is default in vb4.

Under Forum Manager, choose the forum you want to change the icon on and click edit.

Scroll down to Prefix for Forum Status Images .

Enter a desired prefix for use with your forum icon.
I.E. If you were to enter forum1_ as the prefix then you would need to upload the forum icons as:

/statusicon/forum1_forum_new.gif
/statusicon/forum1_forum_old.gif

Styles & Templates >> StyleVars >> search for 'forumicon_size' then edit 48 to 100

That's right. But status images are only in one extension, it's inconvenient.

thank bro :D install

Brilliant thank you

thnx , installed :)

installed and nominated ;)

installed

This looks great! One question though: Is there any change in the image you choose depending on whether or not there are new posts in the forum?

no bro, it only add images to category ^^

It's very useful already. Good mod.

Have been looking for this for such a long time...thank you so much for the mod !!

can we have category images with opacity for old threads ??

no bro, only one images

Not there's a mod that don't replace the default forum icons but that add on the right the custom icons?

Thanks awesome stuff mate :)

the forums kind of goes out of wack if i change from 48 to 32. using FF. like the icon is no longer centered.

Any way it can determine the icon size by itself? I don't think we needed to change the image size in the previous versions... :(

ahhh my icons are blurred because of the size is set to big, tried everything. set them to 32 and tried setting to 32 in the code. no matter what i set the icons size to. they will not go any smaller.
any idea's
any other mods of this that anyone knows of for vb4?

Fixed it with some custom css in my forum :)

ok ... I did everything here.

I also uploaded my new .gif file to the icons directory.

Then I typed in the .gif name on the Forums & Moderators controls ...

But I am getting an "x" where the icon should be ...???

^ Where I could find this?
I can't see anything like this.
I'm using 4.0.3

Please help, I already downloaded the mod.

will update new version

still update more...

you mean your still updating? its been awhile ;)

edit: actually i just edited the forum icon size in style vars>>forumicon_size to 38
and my icons look perfect, nice and clear.
thanks.

Is it possible to have an alternative icon for these forum icons, when the forum is already read?

Cannot get this to work in 4.0.6 :(

I replaced those two forum home templates and uploaded the XML to merge into an existing style and all I get are red X's for the status icons now...

Any ideas?

not doing anything on 4.0.6 ..

please advise on how to change forum icons not clear .

thx
