Here are 3 nice rss icons you can use. Copy them to your images folder on this website;

16x16 -

24x24 -

32x32 -

John:  Not having much luck.  Know where I can find the right area on the site to upload these images?  FYI.  I don't have direct access to server directory this site is hosted.  I'd have to be able to upload the image via forum/site admin controls.

Hmmmm....

I have the rss images hosted for free in photobucket, your welcome to just use them as they are, it won't cost me anything.

The url for the 24x24 rss image is; http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n46/john502/rss/Feed_24x24.png

So i take it that you don't have access to edit the php files for this forum? If that's the case, then you can't add the browser auto-detect rss feed code.

So then you just need to play around with formatting your announcement message to add the rss image to make the message look fancy. The browser auto-detect is just an optional thing. As long as you always have your nice rss image on the front page, linked to the feed, people will see it and use the feed if they want it.

This is the BB code to use in forum messages to add the rss image linked to your feed. Click reply to this message to see the BB code;

This sucks.
The RSS feed announcement I set-up on Home page is done via block comments.

Portal Controls > Block Mgt > Block Contents

From googling/reading I see that in block contents, one can only use block level tags?
Soo...anyone know image specific related tags, or a way to bring-in an image via block tags?

The typical methods that work via posts, aren't working @ block level.  >:(  >:(  >:(
