THanks again for your kind words - especially for the vb and vba team. Personally I think the vba team (Brian) produces some of the most solid stuff for vb (hence the reason I use all thier stuff).

Really, the 'PRO' version would just be a dedicated setup like vba, with members' area for downloads, support tickets, etc. and a forum for new feature requests, bugs and so on. GAS would ideally have its own expandable group in the template manager. I guess the installer and admin settings would be a little more 'vanilla' in their wording. Perhpas the addition of a 'Reviews' setting, i.e. the choice to make a forum an 'Articles' forum or a 'Reviews' forum, with pertinent differences between the two.

Just my opinion as a self-professed entrepreneur, that you could sell this as a significant professional add-on to vBulletin. Perhaps the name would just be 'Articles System' for professional users, like me, who would love this to be a professional product in full ongoing development, rather than just a hack for vb devotees.

To be honest, I think all your hacks could be very successful as 'PRO' products.

I hope it's okay for me to make these suggestions. There just aren't enough good, solid, professional add-ons out there. You are already a step ahead of the game and I am sure someone will eventually start doing this, so why not you!!!

I'd be the first in a massive line of paying customers, I'm certain.

Thanks again for all your hard work!
