I have to admit that I don't understand the whole time system in vBulletin well enough...server time, user time, etc., and frankly, I think there are certain...let's just say "inconsistencies"...in the way it's all programmed in regards to GMT which never goes on daylight savings time yet the actual time zone that covers GMT does, and a bunch of other things that are all very confusing. Whatever logic there is behind the whole thing is lost on me. Without properly understanding it, I don't think I can really put it to effective use in the hack.
As for the user cp thing...Theoretically it's possible, but I haven't done it yet. The general theory is you take the code the instructions say to put in index.php and put it into whatever file it is that generates the page on the screen. I think the user cp is usercp.php but there may be other files that also generate the user cp page depending on what you're doing (member.php, member2.php, maybe others as well). The general theory is also that you put the code in the file just before the template that is the main part of the page gets called. Then you put the variable that has the weather template in it in the template for the page you want where you want it.
