I know this has been hashed up a few times I bet, but that was at old site. My question is, where does one get those nifty icons like everyone seems to have on their forums? I like the ones here. I have found some but, yuck!!! <img> And how does one add them to the forums? Thx in advance...

Oh and the pips. How does one change the color of those in qbar. The only one I know is nav_menu and it is blue....Am I missing some anywhere else?

I can answer your pip question.

The pip is an image in /templates/your template/images/ called pip.gif

Thx Helter!! thats cool. Didnt expect ya's to give up materials from here...

And Driver, I understand where they are now... thx, but how do I make them appear on my website different. If I try to change them via the qbar route, after adding a new field to nav I use nav_menu . Is there another nav_menu code to use or something besides nav_menu? I hope I am saying this clear enough.

What I am after, is say if you look to your left on this boards nav, you have Home and Forum in blue, say I want all the pips in the next section containing acronyms and calendar and such to be red, and green on the next set of options and so on. I hope I cleared myself up a little as sometimes my wording is not the best. Thx again guys....

the easiest way is to replace them with a new pip.gif

if you want different pips for diferent links, upload it to your template images folder
ie...templates/fisubice/images/pip2.gif

open templates/fisubice/fisubice.cfg

FIND

$images['nav_menu'] = "$current_template_images/pip.gif";

AFTER ADD

$images['nav_menu2'] = "$current_template_images/pip2.gif";

(or for the updated fisubice)

FIND

$images['nav_menu'] = "$current_template_images/{$row['body_background']}/pip.gif";

AFTER ADD

$images['nav_menu2'] = "$current_template_images/{$row['body_background']}/pip2.gif";


etc...

go to ACP/general Admin/Qbar/BoardNavigation
edit one of your entries. In the icon field change nav_menu, to nav_menu2

Thx again HelterSkelter. I actually did that edit all the way through nav_menu6 and it works great. Thanks a million.

If you cannot find them to download you could always copy them off that site individually.

Asw far as I know there is no update. If you want to make your own feel free to. you find some icons, http://search.deviantart.com/searchcraf ... arch=icons is a good place to start, resize them if needed and you should know the rest.
