Afternoon all,
Just intrigued to the different coloured boxes on the far left of the forum, I appreciate it indicates if new posts have been added that i won't have seen but why are some of the squares orange and others just have a yellow line? when i put my cursor over it gives a brief explanation but cant differentiate between some? sorry if its a silly question.

This isn't all the combinations but will give you an idea :)

topic_read_mine.gif
means a topic you have contributed to, but has no new posts
topic_read.gif
ditto but one you haven't contributed to
topic_unread_hot.gif
means a topic with unread posts (and is "hot" not sure what defines hot though, number of views or posts?)
topic_unread.gif
ditto but not a "hot" topic
sticky_read.gif
sticky topic, no new posts
sticky_read_mine.gif
sticky topic which you have contributed to, no new posts
sticky_unread.gif
sticky topic with new posts
topic_unread_hot_mine.gif
means a "hot" topic with unread posts,that you have contributed to

So basically -

greyed - no new posts
coloured - new posts and either a normal or hot topic
little square top right - a topic you have contributed to, if it's green there are unread posts
 
Apparently it is silly, I asked the same when I first joined. :oops:
