That is fine and well, but it also shows up any time someone is in the chat room. This looks kind of weird on my board, because my new posts image actually says "New Posts", and I would rather have the chat room one have a different (or NO) image that says something like "Chat Active" or "Join Us!" or something. Can this be accomplished?

If you want the image not to appear by the chat room you could go into your display settings and change the Chat display layout to "user names" instead of "user count". What that will do is show a list of the names in the chatroom, so you would be able to tell when people are in there. No new icon shows up then.

That part works just fine, but I still get the new posts image whenever anyone is chatting. It's not THAT huge of a deal, but I would rather it either just not be there, or allow to have another image for the chatroom. I tried making another skin that has a different icon and setting it just for the chat forum, but since it isn't "really" a forum, it doesn't work Okay, I took a screenshot of the area in question: Last Edited By: fyoosh 11 Aug, 2008 02:00.
