Hi I want to change my 6.04 board so that when the first icon is picked (the default one) it then gives a random icon when the post is sent.
I'm not much of a code junkie so my own attempts at this have failed. All I need is a check when the post is sent, and if they have chosen icon1.gif then a random icon is chosen instead,,can anyone help?
I'm using the drop down message icon hack,,here's where I think the code should go,,I'd really appreciate some help with this.

I don't understand why you want to do this.
However:
In ubb_lib_posting.cgi, sub create_topic, find the place where $icon_number is used to construct the string $this_icon. If you want to assume that the icon files are numbered consecutively starting with 1, you can simply set $icon_number to int(rand N) + 1, where N is the number of icons. If you don't want to make that assumption, it's messier. You could use glob() to get the icon file names into a list, select a random item from the list, then construct $this_icon from that selected item.

Thanks for that. Does anyone know which file the processing of posts is done in so I can change it to do what I want?
