mmmkay.
Ill look at image descriptions after a stable release
Ill look toward moving ratings for the initial release
Ill Look to doing first attached thumbnail as article image for first release
Byline is done and dusted

Summary will be a second phase release
I have almost finished changing from multiple posts making up the article to page break option. In all reality; this was a far easier option anyway (I will post a demo when I finish it most likely tonight)
So, here is where I am at:
First phase beta features:
Obviously, complete integration into vB (permissions, searching, etc... as per Geek Articles 2.0)
Multiple pages via a page break BB code option
Article layout, phrasing etc...
I should be able to have a private beta for those interested by maybe tomorrow? If not, then it will take until next week as I am away on business all weekend again
