But I want to switch the 6 to 10 so that we have 10 options before it cycles and so that for others that actually DL and use the gif poll images, if they don't switch to 10 like I do, they can choose 6 of the 10 colors that will work for there site or skin layouts.

Plox...anyone? Who can code this or create a plug in for meh?

But you did also say "Now I'm not saying I don't know how, because I know a bit of coding".

If you want to make the number of poll colors changeable, you'd either have to add some code to count the number of poll colors available in the images/poll directory, or add an ACP option, and change that line I gave you to:

$option['graphicnumber'] = $option['number'] % $vbulletin->options['poll_colors'] + 1;

Creating a little "product" to do this (with the plugin and the ACP option) would be dead easy, especially if you use the Advanced Product Manager (APM):

It's all just point and click stuff. Create a new product with the APM, add a Setting Group and a Setting Option for poll_colors, add a plugin ... done. Creating the plugin is as easy as just selecting the hook name I gave you and pasting that one line of code.

But if you really don't feel up to it, I'd be happy to create it for you in exchange for some graphics work next time I need it.
