I want to change the icons for the New Post,Not New Post,Locked Posts and Stickies.
How should i carry on this.

kat

Hiya! Welcome to the forum!

Just as a general tip, on this kinda stuff...

Have a look in your theme's "images" directory and the "english" (Or whatever language you use) directory, inside that.

You can change those with whatever images you like! (As long as they have the same names,of couse)

Does that help?

Illori

i dont think so... that folder only contains the "new" image not the post icons, I think the post icons are in the post folder.

kat

Oh, yeah. I was just giving a general tip.

From what I've given him, I suspect that King N'll figure the rest out, for himself, coz he's a clever guy. :)

I am using the default theme and no mods
Which folder should i search
also i am using english

kat

Here's how I do that kinda thing, for what it's worth.

If you hover the mouse over the image you want to change and right-click on it, you can select "Copy image address", or whatever your browser says, and that'll tell you EXACTLY where that image is.

Illori

that depends on browser... you may need to go to properties as well to get that path ;) too bad not enough people use a decent browser.

King N

so i find where it is
then upload my files there
what size should my files be btw

kat

Your files can be whatever size you like.

You can always change them, again, if they look weird.

King N

I tried it earlier today it didnt work
just opened the site again and it worked
yay

kat

You have to refresh the page, of course.

Glad it's all working, now!

Have fun! :)

King N

Of course i had refreshed it then

Illori

might have been your browser caching the images on the page so it took a while to clear the cache before the image showed up.

King N

Yes that ight have been the problem

Worth checking, though, coz some people don't realise, believe it or not.

I could only replace the icons for the new topic and old topic
what about the other topics

kat

All the images are in that "images" directory (Hence it's name) and it's sub-directories.
