1.you have to add a field to icon table for example restricted standart '0'

then you have to change the icon.php so you can change the value of this field. then in forumdisplay.php you have to change the chooseicon function to just get unrestricted icons if the user is a normal one...

2. first do step 1 so users can't use the icons..
then you have to change postings.php
this line

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET open=$threadinfo[open],notes='".addslashes($threadinfo[notes])."' WHERE threadid='$threadid'"); 


into this:

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET ".iif($threadinfo[open]==0,"iconid=XX,","")."open=$threadinfo[open],notes='".addslashes($threadinfo[notes])."' WHERE threadid='$threadid'"); 


replace the xx with the iconid of your closed thread icon..

then for stickies (nearly the same):
find

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET sticky=$threadinfo[sticky],notes='".addslashes($threadinfo[notes])."' WHERE threadid='$threadid'"); 


change it to

PHP Code:

  $DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET ".iif($threadinfo[sticky]==1,"iconid=XX,","")."sticky=$threadinfo[sticky],notes='".addslashes($threadinfo[notes])."' WHERE threadid='$threadid'");
