Here's the results;

About two minutes after I posted that I did it myself haha. If you can't see the image, clear your browsers cache.
I can see it on the main page, but when I go to "View unread posts" the old icons appear ._.
Same thing's happening for me and I just cleared my cache. Every topic has the old icons, and we still need to edit the Altimit logo's colors to reflect topic status.
I was going to try and get that done at some point in the future.
Watch this space.

I love you, nobodyknows. That's even better than my original idea (which just involved giving them a single color, with a glow for "new" and low opacity and no glow for "old").

Me and my extreme procrastination are immensely thankful.

That works quite well. I dunno if you even need the borders on the chevrons though, it might be easier just to have them be one solid color, and I think it'd look a bit more like Kite's data drain that way.
