Unless i've missed something in vB3, you can't do that without hacking.

is there anyway i can link to the images directory just using the $stylevar variable?

Not for the way you want to do it,

[sabret00the]

so theirs no way for me to do

$stylevar[imgdir]/forumhome

Try sticking this in your phpinclude_start template. This will let you use $stylevar[imgdir_forumhome] instead of hard coding it. I did not test it because im about to go to sleep, but if it dose not work it is probbly just something little I missed in my sleepy state

PHP Code:

if (!empty($loo_stylebit))
{
    unset($loo_stylebit);

}
    $loo_stylebit = 'images/forumhome';
    $stylevar2 = array('imgdir_forumhome' => '$loo_stylebit');
    $stylevar = array_merge($stylevar, $stylevar2); 


See I forgot the code and had to edit

Well look at that nice!

[sabret00the]

wouldn't that be the same as just adding a replacement variable to the style?

[sabret00the]

does $stylevar[imgdir_gradients] not exist or is it just me?

[AN-net]

it might be gradient, like the buttons folder is actually $stylevar[imgdir_button](i think)
i dont know>_< vb should include in the next version a list of the style vars, actually they should a release a guide explaining the if statements etc. but thats my 2 cents
