Well, the icon indicator for global announcements is hardcoded in modcp.php, which makes it rather difficult to change the image without changing the default image.

However, I have a suggestion on changing this:

Open /modcp.php

Find:

$icon = "<img src=\"images/minioff.gif\" alt=\"({$lang->expired})\" title=\"{$lang->expired_announcement}\"  style=\"vertical-align: middle;\" /> ";

Replace With:

$icon = "<img src=\"".$mybb->settings['bburl']."/".$theme['imgdir']."/minioff.gif\" alt=\"({$lang->expired})\" title=\"{$lang->expired_announcement}\"  style=\"vertical-align: middle;\" /> ";

Find:

$icon = "<img src=\"images/minion.gif\" alt=\"({$lang->active})\" title=\"{$lang->active_announcement}\"  style=\"vertical-align: middle;\" /> ";

Replace With:

$icon = "<img src=\"".$mybb->settings['bburl']."/".$theme['imgdir']."/minion.gif\" alt=\"({$lang->active})\" title=\"{$lang->active_announcement}\"  style=\"vertical-align: middle;\" /> ";

... This will make the images for the icons read from the theme's image directory, instead of just images/minion.gif or images/minioff.gif

I like this idea!
