UBB.Developers Forums General Discussion Suggestions and Feedback postlist.pl/.php NEW icon

There are 2 images. newmarker.gif and nonewmarker.gif. So, if you want an image for threads that have been read then you would just change the nonewmarker.gif image to something else.

Cool, so for those who want it empty they can put a transparent icon.

And two texts to go into the language files:
"There are new messages in this thread"
"No new messages in this thread"

These being for ALT tags.

Looks cool right now. And will even cool that we can customize them.[]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/]

Lookgs great.... I like it! Except, for my forum I think I'll need to make the 'new' threads have the different cell bgcolors also so they will stand out... and maybe bold text as well. Any tips on doing this, Scream?

You would need to create a new class in the .css file, something like:

.newthread {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
font-weight: bold;
}

And then it would be a matter of assigning this class to the table cells for new threads.

OK... once I get around to it I will figure it out I think... shouldn't be too hard from what I have done with postlist in the past. Thanks!

Scream,

The more I see the current sun, the more errors I see in it... []/w3timages/icons/blush.gif[/] So before the bad pixel creation job I did goes international could you change it to this one, instead? []/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/]

I cant tell the difference. Maybe side by side...
The orange center looks triangular to me, looks like a tent. Any chance you could round it a little? []/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/]

Oh my... I actually posted that? []/w3timages/icons/laugh.gif[/] []/w3timages/icons/blush.gif[/]

I had kind of changed my mind... and thought I didn't hit continue!

Well, how about this one? []http://www.wwwthreads.com/files/26086-newsun.gif[/] []http://www.wwwthreads.com/files/26086-newsun.gif[/] []http://www.wwwthreads.com/files/26086-newsun.gif[/] []http://www.wwwthreads.com/files/26086-newsun.gif[/] []http://www.wwwthreads.com/files/26086-newsun.gif[/] These changes are so subtle, it is tough to see just glancing... I'm picky though. The first one had two red things on the outside edges, looked weird to me.

Has anyone thought about putting a legend at the bottom of the page...some users might never catch on as to what the sun means.

Yeah I have put a legend on the page in the past... then I removed it later and plan to add it to a new user's help/viewing section.
