Custom Forum Icons

This is theme related, but not with a theme that came with Raven Nuke. What I'm trying to do is replace the stock forum images... folder_new, folder_hot, etc. with custom images. The problem is the images I want to use (because of the logo on them) need to be larger than the forced width and height. So... I went into the viewforum_body.tpl and changed (example):

Code:

<td><img src="{FOLDER_LOCKED_NEW_IMG}" alt="{L_NEW_POSTS_LOCKED}" title="{L_NEW_POSTS_LOCKED}" width="33" height="25" /></td>


<td class="gensmall">{L_NEW_POSTS_LOCKED}</td>

to...

Code:

<td><img src="{FOLDER_LOCKED_NEW_IMG}" alt="{L_NEW_POSTS_LOCKED}" title="{L_NEW_POSTS_LOCKED}" width="31" height="33" /></td>


<td class="gensmall">{L_NEW_POSTS_LOCKED}</td>

That changes the images at the bottom of the sub-forums. What I need to set now is, the topics themselves. If I make a new thread, like "Example" and post it, the image to left (now custom) gets stretched back to the original set size. However, the images down at the bottom of the forums are perfectly scaled.

Where do I go to change the settings that effect the icons next to the thread title? Here is the website where the problem is occurring:

*ADDED* This is the code I'm seeing that needs changing, but not sure where to find it:

Code:

<td height="34" bgcolor="#404040" nowrap ><a href="modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=9"><img src="themes/157thReg/forums/images/folder_announce.gif" width="33" height="25" alt="This topic is locked: you cannot edit posts or make replies." title="This topic is locked: you cannot edit posts or make replies." border="0" /></a></td>


<td class="row1" width="100%"><span class="topictitle"><b>Announcement:</b> <a href="modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=9">Avatar and Signature Guidelines</a></span><span class="gensmall"><br />

themes/157thReg/forums/viewforum_body.tpl
themes/157thReg/forums/viewtopic_body.tpl

You can find any of the other images in the tpl files for your theme as well.

Thanks... I had changed the bottom portion of the viewforum_body file... but missed one line midway through that had 33 x 25. Thanks.
