Daft_Ghosty,

PresterJohn, for that you need a web host to errrr.....host your pics and then put the link in the IMG when you reply and it picks up the pic and shows it in the post/message itself.

Very cool. But you need web space. If you want free web space, upto 10MB, go to www.digitalpose.com and tell them shahani sent ya.

Pretty simple. If you need any further help I'll be happy to walk you thru the process.

Well, That yellow guy mysteriously disappeared. Seems the children did something, like played a game. But when asked, they don't know what they did. I just don't know...

Did you try one of those two programs that were suggested?

For the TweakUI program, you can download it here

Use this if your using Windows XP:
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...ertoySetup.exe

Use this if your usin windows 98, windows ME, etc.
http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstati.../NTTweakUI.asp

I didnt check em, but they should have somthin to fix your icons, so if your icons go all stupid again, you can try this program
