Windows Messenger 'like' private messages ON/OFF icon replacement

ok. this is another incredibly simple hack. it will replace your classic VB image icon (in the Private Messages field) with a customised one.

included in the file are the install instructions and the 2 .gif animated images that will imitate the messenger signin/signout event we all know so well. you can also customize the images the way you want.

Thank you that you like my hack also, but why code-hack and complain when you have to upgrade to future versions, when you can do this with a template change. I thought code-hacks were the alternatives to template-modifications, for where original vbulletin code fails to comply.

Yes this is a hacking community, but that doesn't mean I can contribute either And just noticing out to those who rather do a template mod first. The choice is theirs anyway.

ur right xiphoid.
either ways is great. i personally never edit the templates.. but instead i mod vbulletin.style file and import it with a script into the database. i do this because i want to avoid any html code mods that are present in every new release.

as you know, the upgrade does not change the custom templates. also i saw that VB recommends to revert the templates to original. so that's why i decided to use this little trick to update my templates.
