« on: December 01, 2009, 07:50:39 AM »
I personally really like the firestorm/ sftw as its really easy to spot new topics

others in sub forums not not fond of, they are a little confusing so here is some designs I came up with, of corse im only doing this as you mentioned the possibility of changing them, but give me your feedback (everyone) I wont take offense  :mrgreen:


 Normal



Hot Topic



Very Hot Topic



Topic You Posted In (can add the green plus to all of the above ones)



Poll (can add the graph to all of the above ones)



what do you guys think ?

I like them, but the HT ans VHT icons are missing something...
Maybe you should have em on fire or something.

Like the Idea. Also I like the addition of Reier (even when I don`t care if it`s a HT or a VHT that I read). well I give my 4 1/2 thumbs up. We got 12 1/2 in total

that was my original plan but I have to keep them to a particular size.. we cant have massive icons, I wanted to keep them all alike. dont forget they will get a green plus when you post in that topic anyway (or a graph for a poll)

still I can see what I can do :)

How about you use chewblades?

1 is a topic,  2 stacked(DSL style) is a HT and 3 a VHT.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

here are the final ones ACAMS (transparent GIF images) sorry to the guys with little nit picks I dont think it was enough to get them changed entirely, ACAMS only asked me to add the + sign to HT and VHT
