Ok I have to go now : so will explain in the event it is what you want
We use 2 types of image for each forum: forum_new and forum_old
So heres how it goes:
In forum manager, click on the forum you want to customize.
Go down to style options.
Prefix for forum status images, type in bbq_ ( as an example )
Then create two images, one for forum old, and one for forum new gif's
example:
our prefix for The Barbie forum is bbq_
So we created 2 images:
1 is called bbq_forum_new.gif
1 is called bbq_forum_old.gif
Upload these two images to forum/your style/statusicon/ folder
The new gif is 50 x 30 pixels
The old gif is 30 x 30 pixels.
Just repeat this process for all of your forums. Remember to give a specific prefix for the images for each forum, and to correspond that prefix in the image names.
Good Luck Ste
