how do they do that?
« on: July 26, 2010, 09:57:23 PM »
If one looks at the "Recent Posts" box on the front page of the forum, about 90% of the way down the page, one sees an original post by our esteemed colleague Ptarmigan, referring to a news story.

Usually to the left side, there's an icon of what resembles a crooked piece of paper, but Ptarmigan has replaced that with an unhappy face.

I've seen asdf do this too.

How's that done?

When you create a new thread, just under the Subject box is a Message Icon pull down menu.  If left alone, the standard default option is the piece of paper you're referring to that has the corner bent over.

Thank you, sir.

I always wondered.
