this will let you specify what forums you would like to have a custom icon for. There are no template edits or file edits. All you need to do is specify the forum ID's in the vb section section.
Installation:
Install product
Edit settings in vb settings section
After you will need to make the icons they need to follow this pattern:
I'm pretty sure that error is not because of this hack @ installation, because theres no need to call forumlist.php when installing a plug in.
What's the correct procedure for installing this hack? I went to MANAGE PRODUCTS. Is that the right way? This is the first time I've done this and my forum is: www.ww2incolor.com/forum

"That is either a problem with an exiusting add-on (although I know you said you don't have one) or a problem with the add-on you are trying to install.
You will need to contact the author of that add-on for assistance with this."
Well I'm stumped. Oh well, I just won't install this. Thanks for the try.

you will need to go into your config.php and
PHP Code:
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);
at the bottom of it. Then install my addon, or remove the one that caused the problem.
while working on other products i realized how stressful this hack can be the way i coded it.
if you had like 30 forums with icons it would create an if statement for each one of the, it worked but it was like a dumb method. In 1.01 it just matches to an array.
Somehow this doesn't work for me, i'm running 3.6.7, and I've checked that the template is in it's original state, I've activated the mod under vbulletin options and added one forumid to test with, furthermore I've uploaded some images in the correct directory I believe, but if they are not in the correct directory, would it show up as a broken image or as the original icon? because i'm not exactly sure what's causing the problem.

well if your seeing a broken image its the location of your images. If not and your seeing the normal icon on the forum ID you set, then its not working.
It might be nice to add support for "$forum['parentid']".. Maybe the way you've done this already achieves this, but what I'm referring to is allowing all forums under one category ID to have a different icon than all the forums under another category ID.
This would help a lot so that people don't have to type out every single forum id if they want their different categories to have different icons. It also helps when adding new child forums, this way you don't have to go into the settings and add a new ID every time.
