Paul, i was wondering if you might want to add these extra feautres I need for my site to your code. There are only a few:

1. The ability for the news thread to be posted to any forum, instead of a designated news forum (Quake News would be added to the Quake forum). Plus, a special icon, color or title should distinguish the news thread from the regular threads in the destination forum.

2. automaticly insert the author's logo into the news post.

3. would it be possible to track how many news stories a member has posted?

4. Would it be possible to list the 5 previous stories in a box on the side of the front page?

If Paul's not interested, does anyone else want to help me by adding to his hack? Is anyone else working on a system like this?

BTW, this is for a new gaming community site at http://www.tournament.com (nothing there right now, check in a few days).
