Seperating first post from the rest... need that for news...

[firenuts]

Hi, I was wondering if there's an easy way to seperate the first post from the rest of the thread. Example would be the news article on Sysopt. Notice the first post is seperated from the rest.

I was hoping I could do this by modifying the template.

Could anyone pls help?

Thanks!

It can't be just a template mod - it will have to be a file hack as well, because both the 1st post and all others use the same "postbit" template.

Firefly made a hack that allows you to have a different style to the first post - do a search for it, or look for it in his profile. :)

Im actualy making a news hack that does what a lot of hacks include but almost inpossible to seperate, or duplicate if you don't know what your doing. If you have problems with your news you might consider it then, it should be released in the next few days.
