Threadbit Coloring Based on Thread Status · **Released**: 03-22-2007

Threadbit Coloring
thread color threadbit background coloring

What does it do?
This modification will color the threadbit of your threads relative to their status, ie: closed, popular, read, unread. It's my version of the system currently in place here on vBulletin.org.

Installation
1. Upload the attached Product XML file.
2. Follow the instructions in the readme file.
3. Look at the post just below this one for information on customizing the modification.

Screenshots
As I said, this is my take on vB.org's System - so they're fairly similar, but I've attached screenshots because I know people are going to want them anyway.

Donations
As always, this modification is released to you, the community, to do with as you please at no charge - should you, however, feel compelled to donate funds to me - you may click the "Support Author" button on the panel to the right to do so; it's much appreciated.
