I am a real newb at this. I just started modifying my theme today, and am wondering how I would go about changing the default buttons (the new thread buttons, edit, reply etc.) Is there a way to change the buttons, or at least change the color?

Thanks!
The buttons can all be found in the "images" directory of your forum. Simply create new buttons in an editing program, give them the same name and file-type (if you don't want to mess around with templates), and replace the ones on the server with them.
Thank you for the quick reply. One more question. How would I create buttons using templates?

Sorry, I am sure this is an obvious answer to most people.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. You can create a HTML button using:
<input type="button" name="mybutton" value="My Button" />
or
<input type="submit" name="submitbutton" value="Go!" />

But you can't create image buttons using the MyBB template system o.o

If you want the GDK for the MyBB image set, find it here :http://community.mybboard.net/showthread.php?tid=5273
Thanks Dennis!

If I create the buttons using HTML, which template would I use to add the button HTML code?
Depends where you would want the button(s) Wink.
