table.forum-list-container tr.category-header td { border-width: 1px 1px 0; border-style: solid; border-color: #C8CCCE; border-spacing: 1px;}
table.forum-list-container tr.subforum-list td.subforum-item { border: none; padding-top: 0;}
div.list-footer {border-width: 1px 1px 1px; border-style: solid; border-color: #C8CCCE; border-spacing: 1px;}

This is what I use to change the icons:

.forum-list-container .forum-item .cell-forum .icon {
    background: url("path/here/image_old.png") no-repeat; 
    height: 20px;
    width: 20px;
}
.forum-list-container .forum-item.new .cell-forum .icon {
  background: url("path/here/image_new.png") no-repeat; 
}

Wow, cheers Lynne!

That looks loads better than my attempt. I guess I need to have a bit more practice, huh?
