I am working to get vBCredits II Deluxe integration as my next priority :)

Awesome work DW. I've been using this from it's early beta stage, and it's an excellent piece of kit. It feels very intuitive.

Installed and Nominated, will be buying the pro version shortly.

I notice on your site there are adverts whilst the game is loading, are they ads you have placed , is there an option to add our own adds from google adsense?.

Thanks.

Currently there is not an ad location for your site to use, however mochi and other game distributors have programs for you to opt into to share ad revenues.

under testing
thanks

Smashing mod ...got the pro version installed on my site ...worth every penny... take a look if you want...:D

I have tried to make the links with all the games in it like it should but does not look the same so will just use the one i have

Any chance you could give a little more detail? Not really sure what it is you're saying here.

Holding this one for install...

I am running v3Arcade, do I install vBarcade and then uninstall my old one? Also, will it carry over all the scores that are currently there?

Thanks,
John
