Step 1. Make 4 icons per forum. call them:
CUSTOM_forum_new.gif CUSTOM_forum_old.gif CUSTOM_forum_new_lock.gif CUSTOM_forum_old_lock.gif (new is the version when there are new posts and the forum is open, old is when there are no new posts and the forum is open. new_lock is when there are new posts but the user can't post in that forum (it's locked.) old_lock is when there are no new posts and it's locked. Step 2. Upload Files Upload all images to your images/statusicon directory via FTP. Step 3. Go to Admin CP -> Forum Manager Edit the forum you want to make the custom icons for, find the box Prefix for Forum Status Images and put: CUSTOM_ in the box. Now save and you should see the forum icons when you view the forum index. Change "CUSTOM_" in the file names and the box in step 3 to whatever you want, usually a word that describes the forum you are making the icons for. |

Made 4 new icons per forum as mentioned above uploaded them in images/statusicon directory and then went to specific forum and in "prefix forum images" put the Custom_ and saved it but when i visit the forum it looks like this ... as its shown in the attached image. Any help will b appreciated. Thanks |

It's possible the style has it's own statusicon directory you will have to account for. |

Do you have vBulletin 3.x or 4.x?

@K!ng
You need to rename the image to: custom_forum_*.gif (Replace the * with new,old,locked) You can change the extension of the .png image to .gif without any problem (if you want the same quality) Anyhow, I wouldn't recommend you doing this, it will just increase the page load time. |

Can we get an image of what you did in the Forum Manager and then a link to the forum.php page so we can check the image source code.
