hmm well ok waiting

thanks installed :) Finally

Cool, does this come with any pics?

what I was waiting for .. installed :)

Any benefits in upgrading to this 3.6.5 version ?
I'm running vbulletin 3.6.4 and installed the award system for 3.5.X a few months ago and had no problems.

Me too. Just wondering if there were many changes.

Any more images than just the blue?

Nope, I dont design any set of awards. Wish if anyone can design a set for this hack :)

Not big changes. I released actually because people asking again and again for a version for 3.6.x, so I give out one.

beside some minor modification, there're few other changes:

- [2.1.3] Add a link "Give award to user" in admincp menu and change some link name.
- [2.1.3] Notify awarded user by email option
- Change "Issue reason" from input to textarea, so you can give more descriptive reason when giving award(s).
- Allow user to issue/remove awards in In ModCP (I myself dont like this, but it has been requested). Remember, no permission check in there yet, so anyone who can access ModCP can use it)



If you use the old one (2.1.2) without problem, you dont really need to upgrade.
