I now have this working at Classic Motorcycling Australia and have modded it a little to suit new messages, locked forums & locked forums with new messages. 
If puzo is OK with me posting the code, then I shall. Thanks for the work in getting the original running there puzo, great work.

OK, this is just an update to Puzo's great mod. All credit goes to Puzo. I am also using .gif as I seem to get them smaller than the .jpg and they look just as good. If you prefer to use .jpg, just change the code to suit.
1. Create a directory called "show" (with-out the quotes) in your fourm directory
2. Create 4 images for each of the FORUM_ID's (normal = <FORUM_ID>.gif), (new post = <FORUM_ID>_np.gif), (locked forum = <FORUM_ID>_fl.gif) and (locked forum new post = <FORUM_ID>_fnl.gif) and place them in to the newley created show directory. See the original post from Puzo.
3. In inc_header.asp just below:
<!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_func_common.asp" --> Insert the following after changing the colors to suit your needs:
<style type="text/css">
.brdr { border: solid #DDDDDD; border-width: 1px;
}
.brdrlock { border: solid #006CB3; border-width: 1px;
}
.brdrnew { border: solid #E00DFF; border-width: 1px;
}
.brdrnewlock { border: solid #FE010D; border-width: 1px;
}
</style>The in default.asp find and replace the following sub (no line given as each users forum is different):
sub ChkIsNew(dt)
Response.Write "<a href=""forum.asp?FORUM_ID=" & ForumID & """>"
if CatStatus <> 0 and ForumStatus <> 0 then
if dt > Session(strCookieURL & "last_here_date") and (ForumCount > 0 or ForumTopics > 0) then
Response.Write getCurrentIcon(strIconFolderNew,"New Posts","hspace=""0""") & "</a>"
else
Response.Write getCurrentIcon(strIconFolder,"Old Posts","hspace=""0""") & "</a>"
end if
elseif ForumLastPost > Session(strCookieURL & "last_here_date") then
if CatStatus = 0 then
strAltText = "Category Locked"
else
strAltText = "Forum Locked"
end if
Response.Write getCurrentIcon(strIconFolderNewLocked,strAltText,"hspace=""0""") & "</a>"
else
if CatStatus = 0 then
strAltText = "Category Locked"
else
strAltText = "Forum Locked"
end if
Response.Write getCurrentIcon(strIconFolderLocked,strAltText,"hspace=""0""") & "</a>"
end if
end sub with the following:
sub ChkIsNew(dt)
Response.Write "<a href=""forum.asp?FORUM_ID=" & ForumID & """>"
if CatStatus <> 0 and ForumStatus <> 0 then
if dt > Session(strCookieURL & "last_here_date") and (ForumCount > 0 or ForumTopics > 0) then
Response.Write "<img src=""show/" & ForumID & "_np.gif"" class=""brdrnew"" border=""0"" alt=""" & chkString(ForumSubject,"display") & """></a>"
else
Response.Write "<img src=""show/" & ForumID & ".gif"" class=""brdr"" border=""0"" alt=""" & chkString(ForumSubject,"display") & """></a>"
end if
elseif ForumLastPost > Session(strCookieURL & "last_here_date") then
if CatStatus = 0 then
strAltText = "Category Locked"
else
strAltText = "Forum Locked"
end if
Response.Write "<acronym title=""" & chkString(ForumSubject,"display") & " (Locked)""><img src=""show/" & ForumID & "_fnl.gif"" class=""brdrnewlock"" border=""0"" alt=""" & chkString(ForumSubject,"display") & """></a>"
else
if CatStatus = 0 then
strAltText = "Category Locked"
else
strAltText = "Forum Locked"
end if
Response.Write "<acronym title=""" & chkString(ForumSubject,"display") & " (Locked)""><img src=""show/" & ForumID & "_fl.gif"" class=""brdrlock"" border=""0"" alt=""" & chkString(ForumSubject,"display") & """></a>"
end if
end sub You are now done.
I rank ease of install 2 out of 10 with 1 being the easiest. This would of got a 1, but the need to create the images.. |

@Helterskelter
It looks very nice on your forum, for me too it was hard finding those images but it was worth it, a nice cosmetic addition. |

Like I said, this is Puzo's mod, so all the congrats goes to him..
What I did, was just make you increase your use of a graphics editor to make another 3 images for your forums on top of the one you would of anyway...  |
Cheers,

this is just what my forum needs, great mod
puzo and I'll try installing it today
have you thought of possibly setting a pic into
the category as well and have settings to where
admin's can choose to have just pics in the
catagory or both catagory and topics?
just a thought
again, good job!
btw, is it possible to have a flashing border color
if new posts are in a topic using <style> instead
of making an animated gif?
