I have been dying to know how this is done. It can't be that hard for PHP people, I know a little bit but not enough. :(

I am looking to make the newthread button in specific forums, direct users to a different page than the newthread.php page. I am thinking of trying to tie it in with another mod and just add on, but I am not sure what the php would be. =/

Any help really appreciated!

Yes, but I only want it to appear in specific forums. Like for my download forums, have a New Download button, instead of New Thread, and it links to:
(where ever)
 
just add conditions into your template codes, i believe it is this

Code: 
<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td>

And Replace it with this:

Code: 
<if condition="forumid=[color=Red]1[/color]">]<td class="smallfont"><if condition="$show['newthreadlink']"><a href="newthread.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newthread&f=$foruminfo[forumid]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/newthread.gif" alt="$vbphrase[post_new_thread]" border="0" /></a><else />&nbsp;</if></td></if>

and just edit the forum id, correct me if im wrong.

if you plan on finding this check in the forumdisplay template
