You can just simply do this.  Goto your default themes Images folder, and just copy all images that start with "smi" ...

Just copy those over to your other Images folder in other themes

Excellent. For some reason, I did not have those images in any of the image folders for existing themes (default-curve/core/bloqcs). I simply went back to the mod page, right clicked > saved as .png files with the names you suggested, and dropped them into the images folder for the them I'm using. PROBLEM SOLVED.

THANK YOU. This is a very clean mod which I think will help our members build stronger connections away from the board, hopefully bringing more people to our community.

Cheers,

you didn't need to save them like that - all those images were in the mod package, too...

I would expect them to be, but I downloaded the latest version of the package from the mod page, uploaded it via admin panel, and there were no such image files in any of the 'images' directories in the (3) themes present on this fresh install. No idea why that was the case, but figured I would share my findings in the hopes it helps anyone else who might encounter such a situation.

your images directory might not be writable...

(but when I said "in the package", I also meant that you could have unzipped the package on your PC and grabbed the files directly out of there.)

You are wise in the ways of the SMFs, mate. I had not thought of this. #facepalm

And you are absolutely correct about where the images were. Lessons learned.

PS: Kudos on the lightning quick response. It's a newbie's dream!

I'm honestly wanting to rod of myspace from the MOD, or just leave it as an option that no one probably uses.  But there is room for others to be added, some requests i just didn't feel warranted an addition.   I'm not in the "know" of most social sites, so with pinterests, or any other requests anyone wants to suggest, just provide me of an example link of what someone's profile url is on a suggested site.

look something like this?  http://pinterest.com/hcfwesker/  ?

[Kindred]

yes...

wow Thanx!  You did all the work for me.  just copy and paste from what you supplied

[hcfwesker]

I've got all the coding done.  But my gfx designer hasn't been around for a few days.  Anyone want to help with cleaning the attached image up, making the background transparent?  Or provide one of your own that may look better?

Edit.

I got it.

[geek_andy]

Not sure why there are 2 v1.0.7's on the mod download page but upgrade went fine, great mod!

[hcfwesker]

Thanx for the notice.  MOD Edit page froze while loading and i may have hit the 'Save' button a couple times to try and speed it up.  Glad to hear the upgrade went fine for you.  I'm sure some with several MODs installed may run into some errors most likely in Load.php.

[clericvash]

I cannot get this mod to install:
      Execute Modification   ./Themes/core/PersonalMessage.template.php   Test failed
   1.   Add Before   ./Themes/core/PersonalMessage.template.php   Test failed

[Kindred]

wow....   people really don't bother to even try to search, do they?
This question is answered (several times) in nearly every mod thread... and in the online manual
