Introduction:

When I first installed Zero Tolerence's Welcome Panel, I found that it had a lot of mistakes on my computer. I set out to make a new template for the hack - and I succeeded. This template is my rewrite of Zero Tolerence's hack.

This Hack Made Possible By Zero Tolerance

Please Remove Zero Tolerance's Plugins When Upgrading from a Previous Version!

Hack Requirements:
This hack has one requirement:
  1. vBulletin v3.6.0 or higher. (Confirmed working with vB 3.7.0 RC1)
Installation

Installation is a breeze! Follow these simple steps:
  1. Upload Files into folders.
  2. Install Welcome Panel Product
  3. Customize!
Yes, it's that simple.

They should be located within the forumhome template group if I remember correctly.

vBulletin options. There is one in there under this option group that allows you to turn the branding on / off.

Well over a year and a half later I'm announcing that I'll be rewriting this for vB 3.6+ including new features and improved usability.
