    Ok quick questions for the masters of vbulletin here... I was browsing the internet (as I do when bored) and stumbled across a website (it just so happens to be for my favorite EPL Team Everton) and saw something that I would not mind implementing on my site:

    GrandOldTeam

    Behind each of the catergory titles there is an image there and was wondering how i could go about setting something simular up on my forums?

    Any ideas? I have tried a few things but they haven't worked.

    Thanks in advance for any help you are able to give.

    Do you mean the different statusicons for each forum? eg. awww.adminaddict.net_data_MetaMirrorCache_a222c42327ac360178ef87928b4f3215.gif

    If you adjust your CSS you could use any size image :) Just change the height to whatever your image is.

    You can change the statusicons from the Edit Forums screen. It allows you to enter a prefix for that forums statusicons, then simply upload the new images to your directory

    Example:

    forum1_new_posts.gif
    forum1_nonew_posts.gif
