Forum statusicon images but not .gif

[Devanand]

I want to change forum statusicon images. I can do it by adding prefix for each forum but than I can use only gif images. Is there any other way to change them or something to do that prefix look to PNG or JPG images.

Thank you

You can use Replacement Variables. Or, there is a tutorial/article either here or on vb.com that talks about the steps to go through to change image types.

But what should I replace with what in Replacement Variables. I never used that option before.

You can read about them here - Replacement Variables

Try them out on a style that isn't visible to users or on a test site. The best way to learn how something works is to try it out.

Ok, I understand what does that do , but I don't know which code to replace with what. Where should I look to find that?

Basically look for forum_staticon.gif and replace it with forum_staticon.png or whatever image extension you want to use
