How would I go about making some different star gifs for the member groups, I tried to put some up and it doesnt come up? our site, Dark Don has the simple gray/black boxes.

go to the membergroups and choose modify. you can then set the image file to be used for each membergroup.

Alternatively, you can replace the "star" images in the custom theme directory/images folder

Have you purchased that on shutterstock? If so, do you have the program/skills to resize images?

burd,

you are either not bothering to read our posts or you are not explaining yourself clearly.

We have told you - you can do it two ways
1- upload the image to your server and then edit the membergroup settings and tell it specifically what image to use (path to the image and the actual image file name)
2- replace the existing star files in your CUSTOM THEME IMAGE DIRECTORY with the new image (using the same name as the original star file(s).


I will note- this file that you attached is a licensed file.  Have you purchased a license to USE that image?

The image that I posted, just above...

If it's what you want, right-click on it and save it on your desktop, or wherever.

Upload that image into your default theme's "images" directory, using FTP or your CPanel's File Manager, overwriting what's there.

Job done.

K@, he still has not answered if he has a license to use that image... so you might not want to pass it around.
