Added VonDooms - Graphics

Excellent, wondered if this would get vb4'd

[iguano]

installed, perfect
thanks :-)

[VonDoom]

Thanks

[Trumpetrhapsody]

Installed.

Suggestion though:

For the sake of universality, wouldn't it be better to use:

<a href="private.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">

Instead of customizing:

<a href="http://www.yobromofo.com/forum/private.php?">

Only did absolute url, because some people have convoluted suites, with content and forum here there and everywhere.
