I love this mod!, for the next version can you customize it to users needs, share fav with other users display user avatars in user favorites. settings for group permissions. relocation of the player and add radio station boxes. user status on what everyone is listening to, Default auto load for users favorites, user commenting etc. Integration with MGC chatbox would be a good option too.

[Dream]

Sorry, no plans to make most of those.

You can relocate the player and add station tables easily editing the template RADIOSTATIONS.

Settings for usergroup permissions are already available in the Radio Stations options.

"customize it to users needs" not sure what you mean by that.

To share stations with other users, you can send the "permalink" link to anyone you like.

User commenting was thought of, but it would just bloat the mod with useless comments on most boards.

User status on what everyone is listening to is interesting, but would need some research as I'm not sure how it could be acomplished.

Display user avatar in user favorites is a little useless in my opinion...

What could be interesting is to see any user's list of favorites, with something like radiostations.php?do=showfavorites&userid=123

Integration with MGC shoutbox, I don't see what kind of integration could be accomplished. Either way that could be a separate mod as not everyone uses both. Also, you can link stations in the chatbox using the permalink anytime.

Default station per user was thought of, but wasn't implemented because of layout problems (wouldn't know where to put a button "make this station default" in the favorites list).
