The icons that you mention are part of the Login skin object.

If you want to modify the skin, your best bet is to make a copy of the Xcillion folder and rename it. You could call it Xcillion-Me and put it in the /portals/_default/skins folder.

Then you need to modify Home.ascx, Inner.ascx, and Admin.ascx files.

All of those files have a similar structure. If you want to mimic the behavior of the existing skin, add a div just under the div with ID of login. Something like this:

[div id="mystuff' class="pull-right"]
add your html here
[/div]

if you want to do this often, and actually have one thing that works on all of the skin files, create a skin object for this (it's fairly easy) or add in include at that point (even easier).

thank you - that got me going. it involved quite a bit more work than i originally imagined because the theme login elements are processed on the server whereas mine are strictly handled in client side html and css. so to style it properly, i dug around in the developer tools to reverse engineer a lot of the css settings and html.

i could not find a compatible shopping cart icon, but there was one in the main Images folder which is adequate.

more elaborate implementations would require javascript with server side integrations which is more trouble than i need for the moment.

and of course i need to save these changes for the next dnn upgrade which will probably overwrite them. i saved a copy of the original theme and then modified the one in place. maybe it back asswards but i can only do so many new tricks at once.
