Forum topic icons and buttons.

Well, I'm short of graphics designers. If anyone would be happy to join my site and help there, it would be appreciated. My forum is in the starting stages which is why I'm short of staff.

Anyway, here's what I need done on this particular request.

Well, when I came here I liked how the topic icons have an animation and would like to have that mimicked with my own graphics.

Currently, my site's topic icons are these :

Normal : https://i.servimg.com/u/f68/14/78/27/47/i_cate11.png
New : https://i.servimg.com/u/f68/14/78/27/47/i_cate10.png
Locked : http://hitskin.com/themes/15/34/83/i_category_locked.png

However, these aren't exactly great looking icons and if you want to make brand new forum icons that'd be great too. It needs to look good against a dark background though. But most importantly is to have that animation mimic, maybe change the color to orange instead of blue though because blue doesn't really sit on my theme very well.

Thanks!

Alexander, on that theme, the buttons dont have animation it's done through the CSS with hover codes, meaning two images are created and when you mouseover on it it shows the second image. If you look in the css look at the image part you'll see what i mean. I'm sure you can do the same with the above if you find someone who can create the three images in orange and create the css code for it. That is if your looking to add the hover effect to the buttons. if not you can disregard this message.

The required request layout isn't being used, by the way.

Oh yes, please read the rules. you need to use the graphics commander to request any graphics request.
