Ok I have to go now : so will explain in the event it is what you want

We use 2 types of image for each forum: forum_new and forum_old

So heres how it goes:

In forum manager, click on the forum you want to customize.

Go down to style options.

Prefix for forum status images, type in bbq_ ( as an example )

Then create two images, one for forum old, and one for forum new gif's

example:

our prefix for The Barbie forum is bbq_

So we created 2 images:



1 is called bbq_forum_new.gif
1 is called bbq_forum_old.gif

Upload these two images to forum/your style/statusicon/ folder

The new gif is 50 x 30 pixels
The old gif is 30 x 30 pixels.

Just repeat this process for all of your forums. Remember to give a specific prefix for the images for each forum, and to correspond that prefix in the image names.

Good Luck Ste

THANKS ALOT!

that was a great help... So i did everything above, and it didn't work...

I tried multiple times, chmod'd the image files, everything....

Then i just put it on the default style to see if it would work on there, it did.

So i uploaded the same pics to the style that I'm using's folder... which is this skin: http://www.vbskinstudio.com/premium-...etin-skin.html

so it works on the default style, but not on the one I need it to... Any ideas on a fix? I've tried everything I can think of
