Why not change your http://wdubradio.com/modules/Forums/...folder_big.gif to a transparent.gif???

still doesn't solve the problem, I add images to the stories and with the topics images the spacing is screwed up

Within your Modules/TOPICS there is a Index.php file!

Locate the section that looks like this!

Code:

	$ThemeSel = get_theme();
	if (@file_exists("themes/$ThemeSel/images/topics/$topicimage")) {
	    $t_image = "themes/$ThemeSel/images/topics/$topicimage";
	} else {
	    $t_image = "$tipath/$topicimage";
	}
	echo "<td align=\"center\">\n"
	    ."<a href=\"modules.php?name=News&new_topic=$topicid\"><img src=\"$t_image\" border=\"0\" alt=\"$topictext\" title=\"$topictext\"></a>
\n"
	    ."<font class=\"content\">$topictext</font>\n"
	    ."</td>\n";

Easiest eay is to remove

Code:

<img src=\"$t_image\" border=\"0\" alt=\"$topictext\" title=\"$topictext\">

This should do the trick!

in topics you can assign an default image to a topic, i want to get rid of the default images, on my site the little guy with the red hat and the black and white guy with a goatee.

You need to go into your modules/news. Within each of the files you need to locate the segment that echos

Code:

$topicimage

similar to that shown above!

If you just would remove it from Topics the other program files will still try to display a bank image!

Based on codes and that you would like them totally to disapper I would recommend double checking each of these files!

As always be sure to backup the originals before replacing! Especially when touching more then one at a time!

reino4 · **huh -** 06-04-2003, 01:43 PM

when you say double checking, do you mean delete each incident of $topicimage?
