Terrific mod/hack!

I modified the openwindow() to do screenwidth/2 and screenheight/2 and turned on menu and resize/status bar. MUCH BETTER.

The usernames should use the color scheme like elsewhere on the boards. That is, moderators in red, CMs in green, admins in blue, and so on. (These are the colors I've assigned on my boards to usergroups).

Text box should let you enter more than one line if you copy/paste from some other source.

Should be allowed to be in 2 rooms at once

Users in vbchat on right should be more condensed. Just username would be nice, but with dropdown menus to do things like send private message, ban, etc.

Ban isn't noticable. When my mods/cms try it, they can't tell someone is banned. Users banned still show up as if in channel.

Invisible users show up visible on the index.php page if in vbchat.

Would be nice if it checked PMs. If a new one comes in, it'd be nice to know it. Since this mod is updating things all the time, it would work terrifically.

I'd do this as a text link at the top: "You have x PMs, 1 new" with maybe some highlight if a new one comes in.

Can you send me info on exactly how you did this? I'd love to get a better sizing on my site.

Find the window.open() call in the navbar template and add /2 to the screen width and height parameters.

You can google window.open to find the various parameters you can tweak.
