Great mod, but I have a suggestion and one complaint. Kerry-Anne, as a vB.org staff member, why have you NOT updated the installation instructions(.txt file) to include 'ok, now, for your side columns to show, you need to update your usergroup permissions from the usergroup manager for each usergroup' and left that part up to all your installers to figure out and complain about? Come on! I spent over an hour trying to figure that out. Why would someone take so much time putting such a greak hack together and not take the time to update that?

Suggestion: Instead of template edits for the usc_block templates, you should incorporate those blocks into the ACP-vBulletin Options->Ultimate Side Columns Options. An option like that, would make this TRUELY the "Ultimate Side Columns" mod.

At anyrate, this mod works well if you are a mid level vB hacker and I personally take the time to "Thank you" for it.

I will update the release post, but the docs won't be updated just for a small change to the instructions.

And the block codes was originally in the vBOptions but was moved to the templates as the use of the vBOptions severely limits the functionality available in the blocks. Simple things like basic variables are not available via contents through the vBOptions. It doesn't mean that I don't think about a better solution for it for 3.0 when I start writing that (I'll get to it eventually).
