Add flashing envelope PM notification · **Released**: 12-17-2005

A very simple template mod that's guaranteed to catch the users eye, see screenshot.

Please see the attached text file for instructions, here's the image

Enjoy!

A few more newpm.gif options if anyone wants them...

See below, for a Blue scheme, Green scheme and simple White scheme.

yeah, i noticed it too the one he shared i guess has a limited continuous loop in place thus it only flashes for about 5-10mins [never really checked on the actual time]

here is one that will flash continuously until the # unread PM's ≠ 0

tnx again to ericgtr.

btw, the red in it fits in quite nicely on a Kartel style backround.

I've attached the images I'm using too, as well as a screenshot.

Thanks for this. I could not get it to work in Firefox but your code fixed the problem. :up:

for some reason its not showing will it only show if there is a message i am slightly confused..please excuse my silly question but do answer them

Eq4bits · #**140** 11-15-2007, 04:16 PM

yes, it only shows if the person has an unread PM. I think you can test it by pm'ing yourself...
