Custom thread tags

[pureturk]

How do you create different thread tags like on this site?
And is it also possible to assign certan tags to certain forums or subforums only?

Thread Prefixes?

Maybe thats what I mean. those images you place to indicate the type of threads

Is it possible to add image icons for each prefix as shown in the pic?

That's most likely not images, that's text styled with css. You can use html (for example a span tag) around your tag, give it a class and define that class in additional.css.

Anyway, you could use images too, since html is possible (IIRC).

I using this span tag but the text falls outside the image .
I need the text to appear in center of the image.

<IMG SRC="images/gradients/in.png"><style="color: green"><b>IN</b></span>

If you want the image to be in the background, you can´t use img. Use CSS background instead.

Here they are able to use image background and place the text in the middle. however I need the text to be white.

Then change the value of color to white/#ffffff. This really is the most basic css. If you want to style your forum, you need to learn some.
