I think the private message icon are wrong. The read message has this icon:http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/images/hexcell/statusicon/pm_old.gif and the unread message icon is: http://www.dotsis.com/mobile_phone/images/hexcell/statusicon/pm_new.gif. I think they're exchanged,aren't they? If you don't trust me see in your private message section.

Dunno, Just received a couple of PMs, its ok. (The normal manner, as they are supposed to be). Check the screenshot (Test Message is a new PM, rest are old)

Now, I have blurred out the topics and recipients because, PM's, as the name suggests, are supposed to remain P. :lol:

What i tried to say is that a new message should have a close message icon and an old a open message icon. Now they're inverted.

The system is like that. On any vBulletin forum, you'll find this system. It isnt inverted.

The meaning I get out of that is that, in an unread message, its opened and kept in front of you. Thats why its opened. When you complete reading the message, you close the envelope and keep it aside.

Anyway, enough of meanings. :lol:

Bottom Line: The system is designed and it cant be changed. (Unless some serious code changing is done to the forum code)
