Thank you, sir. I use the Dynamic templates hack for EVERYTHING now. I'm looking forward to making good use of the one, too.
By the way, is there a way to be able to use the announcements on any page AND the index.php? I know we have to put it in one or the other, but it would be great to be able to use them both places. Do you know what I mean?
One last thing...is there a way to make a link in the left panel that will take you to the bottom of the vbulletin options where the announcement box is straight from that link?
