------end update.

Well everyone, I decided tonight to release this and just see what happens from there on. I got caught up in working on my multi-page profile for my site, and kind of forgot about this. Sorry I do that a lot, in which I am sure everyone does.

First off... please read all of the files that I have included in this, the Installation.txt file is something I slapped together at the last minute and probably needs proof read... but who cares. The Readme.txt file explains what all the files are, and has some other tidbit information.

The only things you will really need to upload is: upload.php, userhelp.html, vbuploadinstall.php and the images and image folder.

I tried to explain the best way to have it... is putting those three files in the root of your vb folder, then just upload the images folder, which will create a sub folder inside that for the two image icons. Then you will have to create another folder like I suggested named "uploaded" meaning uploaded pictures. Then you will have to chmodd that to 777 and go from there. Then you will have to go through the upload.php file and change the variable preferences to fit your site. I tried to do the best possible explanation of how to do it through my comments throughout the files. So pay attention to those, also feel free to customize the userhelp file to fit your site and everything.

One thing I kind of fell short on.. was a cool profile page.. I mean I included a getinfo template that I used when I first made this, which was on vb2.0.1 and now that added like ignore and stuff so.. you might just want to create your own template up in your favorite web page builder or in notepad.. whatever. And go from there with the variables that I include.

Just pretty much go through the installation files and everything and follow the steps and you should not have any problems.. not saying you won't but... hopefully the F.A.Q. file will help with that.

Some might hate it, some might like it... if you hate it.. don't download it.. or install it.

To uninstall, follow the steps you took to install it and reverse them

ALWAYS BACKUP Before doing hacks... installations, changes, etc!

**Warning** Install at your own risk!

and... there is no place like home! Just remember that!

P.S. search these forums.. for screen shots and there is no demo as of right now... well there was but I Took it down

Ok.. I updated the zip again.. because of one flaw.

When I was rushing around to get some things fixed.. I forgot to change my instructions... gotta remember to slow down and think next time

Ok.. the only thing I changed was in the filechanges.html file which.. I changed to

in the admin/user.php file

look for <?php and right after that place this code:

... it used to be replace .. which you DO NOT want to replace that with the code... the file will not work. So remember if you don't want to download the new file, to please paste the code underneath that..

and again my apologies for my sloppy work.
