Did you read the help popup next to the option in the admincp?

Prefix for Forum Status Images

Forum Status images are usually shown alongside the forum in a forum listings to indicate the read status.

This prefix must only contain alphanumerical characters, though the following are also allowed - _ / ., a folder name is also acceptable to be placed within the status icon directory.

The following images are currently in use for status icons, you will need to create images with the specified prefix to match.

• forum_link-48.png
• forum_new-48.png
• forum_new_lock-48.png
• forum_old-48.png
• forum_old_lock-48.png

AdminCp > Forum & Moderators > Forum Manager > (Now select the forum you wish to change prefix)

Scroll down to Style Options

and change

Prefix for Forum Status Images

with your new image path and name

Thanks - I went into SQL and updated the forum table imagprefix field so all those icons disappeared at once.
