Colored Dot Next to New Thread Title?

[lordrene]

Hello, Is there a mod or thread that will add a dot next to a new thread? Instead of a "NEW" icon

Example:

[br360]

You can change that new image to whatever you want. Upload the dot image you want to your server (place it in the same directory as the new.gif) and name it something like dot.gif

Then in messageindex.template.php

find:

Code Select Expand

<a href="', $topic['new_href'], '" id="newicon' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '"><img src="', $settings['lang_images_url'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt['new'], '" /></a>';

and where new.gif is in the code, change that part to dot.gif (or whatever you named your uploaded image to)

Thank you, But is there a way to making the image be on the left side of the thread title? instead of the right

NVM, Found a way to make the image float the the left of the thread title

Code Select Expand

<a href="', $topic['new_href'], '" id="newicon' . $topic['first_post']['id'] . '"><img src="', $settings['lang_images_url'], '/new.gif" alt="', $txt['new'], '" style="float:left;" /></a>';

Alternately, you could have done what I do and that is to rename new.gif to something else like newold.gif and then upload the image of the dot as new.gif. No coding changes required normally, except for your wanting it on the left, of course.

(I rename the original in case I want/need to go back to it.)

+1 only i use a green dot... but that one look cool!

I think the new image is a bit old fashion
