Make Announcements STANDOUT

Apologies if this already exists, but I can't seem to find it.

I've found this hack to make Stickies stand out from the rest of the threads by changing the cell attributes and was wondering if the same could be done for announcements?

Right now, with my currently colour scheme, when an announcement is made, the only real difference is that Announcement is in bold... I would like it to stand out more than it does to ensure it gets maximum view'age!

Thanks in advance for any help provided!

tokenyank - The forumdisplay_announcement template will allow you to change your announcements as you see fit.

In ACP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> [desired style] -> Edit Templates -> forumdisplay_announcement

FIND:

Code:

<td class="alt2" colspan="<if condition="$show['threadicons']">5<else />4</if>">

And REPLACE it with:

Code:

<td class="announcements" colspan="<if condition="$show['threadicons']">5<else />4</if>">

Then in ACP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> [desired style] -> Main CSS -> Additional CSS Definitions

Add the following declaration:

Code:

.announcements

{

        background-color: #E5E5E5;

        border: 1px solid #000000;

}

Just change the background color to your liking as well as the border. Also if you play around in the forumdisplay_announcement template you can edit more things to change the looks of them.
