Read the documentation of the test function. It lets you give a response for either or both of non-empty or empty.

For example:

program:
	test(
		and(
			contains(field('#readinglist'), 'interesting', 'y', ''),
			or(
				contains(field('#ships'), "Angela Montenegro/Jack Hodgins", 'y', ''),
				contains(field('#ships'), "Temperance Brennan/Seeley Booth", 'y', '')
			)
		),
		'',
		'ships (crime).png'
)

shows a ship icon when none of the conditions are true. This

program:
	test(
		and(
			contains(field('#readinglist'), 'interesting', 'y', ''),
			or(
				contains(field('#ships'), "Angela Montenegro/Jack Hodgins", 'y', ''),
				contains(field('#ships'), "Temperance Brennan/Seeley Booth", 'y', '')
			)
		),
		'ships (crime).png',
		'sinking ships (crime).png'
)

shows a ship icon if the conditions match and a sinking ship icon if they don't.

Thanks, I thought it was something like changing the Y in the lines to a N.

Is it possible to combine these two rules as well:

program:
	test(
		and(
			contains(field('#readinglist'), '^interesting$', 'y', ''),
			or(
				contains(field('#ships'), "Angela Montenegro/Jack Hodgins", 'y', ''),
				contains(field('#ships'), "Temperance Brennan/Seeley Booth", 'y', '')
			),
		),
		'ships (crime).png',
		''
)

with this one:

program:
	test(
		and(
			contains(field('#reading_list'), 'interesting', 'y', ''),
			or(
				contains(field('#ships'), "Angela Montenegro/Jack Hodgins", 'y', ''),
				contains(field('#ships'), "Temperance Brennan/Seeley Booth", 'y', '')
			)
		),
		'ships (crime).png',
		'never.png'
)

Thanks

As far as I can see the only differences are the removal of the anchors on the "interesting" line and the addition of the alternate icon.

If you really meant to remove the anchors then the only way to combine the two rules is to use first_non_empty with the separate rule sets. Best would be to set some variable to the result of the "contains" tests so you don't recalculate them.

I am out of time so I must leave it to you to work out how to do it.
