Hi guys I just tried to add a couple of files via filezilla, I have placed two new files in images/yourtheme images folder/ called on.gif (Forum contains new posts) and off.gif (Forum contains no new posts) but its not showing up on my Forum.

I have cleared my cache and everything, but the icon is not changing. I tested by adding new posts myself but nothing. Huh

Your forum's URL please ?
But you are forum icons, right? The forum icons replace the default on/off image IIRC.

It's just these ones > http://localhostr.com/file/reTyEEY/on.gif and also http://localhostr.com/file/JDSnPMD/off.gif just to replace my crappy default ones etc...

by the way what does it mean if a guess is viewing this > "Viewing No Permissions Page" I noticed it a few times now, when I check on the whos online.
It's actually the thread status indicators?
They are named differently.
You have:
images/folder.gif (normal thread)
images/newfolder.gif (new message normal thread
images/hotfolder.gif (hot folder)
images/newhotfolder.gif (new message in hot folder)
images/dot_folder.gif (thread you replied to)
images/lockfolder.gif (locked thread)

Oh god I am confused now lol, ok I shall have a look in filezilla for the above. Thanks for getting back to me with the help.
Are you asking about the forum contains new posts, no new posts icons as a legends to get shown on the footer of your index? If yes, make sure the below code is present in,

ACP > Theme & Styles > Templates > YOUR THEME TEMPLATES > index templates > index >

<dl class="forum_legend smalltext">
	<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/on.gif" alt="{$lang->new_posts}" title="{$lang->new_posts}" style="vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px;" /></dt>
	<dd>{$lang->new_posts}</dd>

	<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/off.gif" alt="{$lang->no_new_posts}" title="{$lang->no_new_posts}" style="vertical-align: middle; padding-bottom: 4px;" /></dt>
	<dd>{$lang->no_new_posts}</dd>

	<dt><img src="{$theme['imgdir']}/offlock.gif" alt="{$lang->forum_locked}" title="{$lang->forum_locked}" style="vertical-align: middle;" /></dt>
	<dd>{$lang->forum_locked}</dd>
</dl>

If not, add the above code after something called, {$boardstats}

Let me know if I can help you further.

Hi yes thats correct I just want to get better looking " new posts, no new posts icons " on the Forum, because they have rough white edges around them. So need to change them I shall have a look at the code you mentioned, hopefully I will be able to work it out from there, and thanks for the help guys your all awesome.
Thanks.

That code would show those icons as legends on footer of index page, if you wanna get new post and all icons, you could manually search over internet or the iconfinder which we discussed.

I have these ones here > http:// http://localhostr.com/file/reTyEEY/on.gif and also http://localhostr.com/file/JDSnPMD/off.gif and tried to add them by putting them in the theme/images folder named as on.gif and off.gif but the icons stayed the same on there.
