Image instead of "Email this" text

subscribing

(my guess would be some kind of CSS ... background: transparent url(/img/forward-to-a-frend.png) ... or something like that...)

if anybody has the full CSS command please post here.

here's the CSS code that worked for me. Just put it in your style.css

.links a.forward_links{
background: url(img/email.png) no-repeat;
padding: 1px 0 0 20px;
}

Of course this assumes that you have an "img" folder which contains an icon called email.png . Change it as you like.

That's the easiest way to do it. If you want to then hide the text, you can do it like this:

.links a.forward_links{
background: url(img/email.png) no-repeat;
padding: 1px 0 0 20px; /* left padding = width of image */
width:1px; /* image will be visible in the padding area and text will be clipped */
overflow:hidden;
}

Its not working for me for some reason. My theme is Twilight and the text is not getting replaced. Also I am getting the image at least only if I use (however the text remains):

.links li.forward_links

or

.links a.forward-page

My drupal version 6 and module version is 6.x-1.x-dev

It'll obviously depend on your theme, and I suspect the link classes may have changed in Drupal 6. Your best bet is to inspect the link with Firebug in Firefox and find the class name that way.
