The full path is the full URL to the image. Like what you'd paste here to link us to something. What's set in the Stylevars menu by default are the relative paths, not the full URLs. Change the paths to the full URLs of images folders. And of course, make sure those images are actually in those folders.

RELATIVE PATH: /images/statusicons
FULL PATH: http://www.cogonline.net/forums/images/statusicons

If your style uses a custom skin, then you may need to check where the designer decided to put those images. For example, he may have put it in a different folder than images, and put it in a folder named after the style. Or he may have put them in a subfolder inside images. The path to those folders needs to be correct in the Admin CP Stylevars menu in order for them to show up.
