I have created Customized menus which are out of the 'Administer Menu'.
I have also created customized icons for the menus, however, it only display the default icons.

My method was as follows:
eg.
for this menu item--> "http://mysite.com/poll"
icon name --> "poll.png" and placed in the 48x48 folder only

for this menu item-->"http://mysite.com/node/add/date"
icon name --> "node_add_date.png" and placed in the 48x48 folder only

but still it couldn't show the customized png image that i created.

BTW, my "Administer" menu works fine in the control panel.
any ideas why it doesn't work for customized menu and icons?

the path should be corrected as "node/add/date".
you do not need to put "http://mysite.com/".

If Module creators would not expect everyone to be coders, maybe the 'common-man' could use Drupal. I wish someone would speak English.

I can't get the icons to work no matter what I do, and I don't know how to code the modules. If I did, why would I use Drupal - or anyone else's coding, for that matter. I'd just write my own code, and not fool with Drupal. Why do users have to rewrite the code to make the module work? If you're going to create a module - make it work without having to rewrite it, or don't create the module.

Would someone PLEASE tell me how to make this module WORK ? -- Is Drupal only a play-ground for coders, or is it supposed to be a CMS that the 'common-man' can use? I'm fed up with installing modules, and then finding that they don't work without changing the code, or trying to follow months of comments and "patches" - most of which don't work either (WHEN I can figure out how to use them). I'm sorry folks, but this is ridiculous - Does the module do what it is supposed to do, and if not, don't post it as a module - because until it works, it's nothing more than a string of characters. "Modules" are items in software that DO SOMETHING - and a "Coder" is someone who makes that string of characters WORK.
