@Taragon : Yeah I have the plan to clean up both code and templates but I had no time for the moment to do that.
Just gone to your forum and the sticky/unsticky is working well as I stated in my chat on your forum.

Just tested on forumcoding : working !
Make sure you use latest version (javascript files) and that you do have no unreverted templates.
I have not been able to get the custom thumbnail CHANNEL IMAGES to work.
I have uploaded to the proper directories in both gif and png format and neither will work. Just shows the text instead. And the text missing image is defaulted to /images/misc/mgc_cb_evo/channels/elites_nosel.gif
in directions you are supposed to type in just the name without extension "elite" (no .png or .gif etc)
Am I missing something? It doesnt work on any of my styles.

Am I missing something here?
All you need to do is add the following using team one as an example: mgc_cb_evo_team
so you would add for yours elites or if you rename them mgc_cb_evo_elites
you may find it easier renaming them to same format as existing files.
