Alternatively, you could save the template into the Global Templateset, and remove any custom versions of the template for each theme.

I've tried editing the Afresh themes that I have and while the extra column appears, the graphics that I've inserted (and that show up in the default theme) do not.
You have to make sure you're using correct image paths for everything. Try sticking to absolute paths if you're having issues.
I'm not sure what you mean. I've gone in and figured out which numbers correspond to which areas to fill in on the default template... everything with that works. I've altered the templates for the Afresh themes and everything looks fine - but no graphics. What's an absolute path?
I think he's referring to the full path of the image.. http://www.yoursite.com/image.gif
I just figured out the problem - if anyone runs into this issue:
The default templates will have the forum_icons folder that you put into the images folder. BUT - when you go to use the other themes and do the edit, copy this forum_icons folder into the "black" "ocean" "leaf" or whatever other afresh folder you create!
Hmm... that shouldn't be necessary though..

<td class="{$bgcolor}" valign="top"><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/forum_icons/{$forum['fid']}.gif" alt="" /></td>

Change that to..

<td class="{$bgcolor}" valign="top"><img src="http://www.mysite.com/images/forum_icons/{$forum['fid']}.gif" alt="" /></td>

That's if your forum_icons folder is inside of your root>images folder.

Try doing that instead.. it'll save you time in the future Smile
Thanks a lot!

Yes but they came up with those little things and little things don't always are so easy to create as they seem Wink.
