as requested by helpseeker

helpseekrr requested a animated notification to allert you of new mail, she requested 1 with sound etc but that would require a flash object

she asked this on 1 of my css animation tips however because of how this was done i decided to go with a traditinal animated gif instead

using the language editor find

<span %1$s>%2$s</span> new

(english version for non english translate the word new or just search for everythung but new)

replace it all with

<span %1$s>%2$s</span> <img src="http://api.ning.com:80/files/d4Ril5vezVJfKtPBnlbGEOCXTmtAwFBEm5XsFaUebFIjNDOnN3ibbjNhesZCpnGXOdMTNntVer65mNHRWtQdAjUgGgnOzxJM/youvegotmail.gif" width="44" height="33" />

now wait for mail and see how it looks

ok spoiler alert this is the image  that will be added

Wacky! And kinda cool for it. Not for my site but it'll be popular with many others. Creative as always.

Saaaweeet! Thanks SE! It looks and works great!

I love this!  Where exactly would this alert show up?  

Next to the inbox, Donna.

Thanks Patrick!

You're welcome, Donna. 

I have gone through all 83 pages!  I have seen what you have stated in some areas (or close to it), but nothing that stated "new".

Do you know approximately what page it is on, on the Pro subscription?

As I have explained to Donna above, it's next to your inbox notifier. But you have to get an email in your box for it to show up. If you don't have a new email in your box, it won't show.

Well.....no wonder...thank you!  I did not see the reply to Donna.  I saw the inbox - but that is all it stated was "inbox."

Hahaha! You're welcome, Apostle. =)

Eureka!!!!!

Excellente'!

Gracious!

LOL De nada!
