Having icons (images) before forum name.

Add at the end of your CSS

#brd-index #forum48 .item-subject h3 > a{
    background: url(http://punbb.informer.com/forums/img/smilies/big_smile.png) 0px 0px no-repeat;
    padding-left: 19px;
    display: block;
}

Where #forumID could be checked by viewing forum source.
Padding left is depended from image size and should be imagesize+few pixels. Like in this example 15px of smile width plus 4px to separate it.

Example of adding

#brd-index #forum48 .item-subject h3 > a{
    background: url(http://punbb.informer.com/forums/img/smilies/big_smile.png) 0px 0px no-repeat;
    padding-left: 19px;
    display: block;
}
#brd-index #forum23 .item-subject h3 > a{
    background: url(http://punbb.informer.com/forums/img/smilies/wink.png) 0px 0px no-repeat;

    display: block;
}

On this forum

well, when i placed a 32 px icon, and added 4 more to the padding left. the width was ok but the picture was half shown, only the upper part was shown, can you give me a code to add and make something like padding height or something.

thanks.

here is the example: http://supermag.boredru.com

Wow, very nice, thanks. btw did u hack my forum or something lol

one more thing, when i add posts and login with another user, the (New Posts) shows in the wrong position in second line. here is the image.

kushi, having problems with the css code you gave me.

it disrups the (new posts) and when i shrink the width of my IE/FF/GC page into like half of the screen, the long forum titles become broken in 2 lines serperated a long way with the forum description over the forum title.

it disrupts the whole view. perhaps i should move the icons near the forum icons. that way it doesnt have anything to do with forum title / description.

i tried for an whole 1.5 hour to do that but my css skills are very limited, perhaps you can give a css to work with.

thanks

ok i updated the code like you suggested, thanks for that, it worked well. but i still have a problem with the text all over each other:

If I were you I would use team logos as a forum background, and prepare theme like that (~25min of work, beg for forbearance)

Just checked the website performance in some website, page size is freaking 164kb, loadtime 1.8s. 37req.

That slow, maybe i should try the background one, having 27 images with 1/2/3kb each might be too much. having 1 image will be better i think. @Kushi would you like to share how you did that, and please upload that image photoshop file too plzz.

What do you guys think about the theme so far? the css of the theme (unminified) is 53kb. just minified it, 38kb now.

well i think i will have to do either this or that, need to give the forum some style. it will help with attracting people.
