Recently, we added a basketball message icon to help differentiate the game threads from other threads.
Today, I added icons for the "Other Sports" boards for baseball, football and soccer.
You can select the icon when you create a new thread by using the drop down menu for "Message icon."
If you forget to set it, you can edit it easily. When viewing your newly created thread, if you click on the message icon, a drop down will load with all of the options.
