Custom Postbits for Users

As some here already know, i'm coding a new hack which allows users to choose a custom postbit.

It's far away from being finished, but the main functions are included and should work. That's why i'm posting it in the Beta Sektion, i hope you can help finding Bugs.

Also i want to ask for a little help: I don't like template works, so templates included in this beta are very functional and not really nice ones . if someone want's to help me writing nicer Templates i'll appreciate.

BETA Version 0.52

What it does:
Allows users to choose a custom postbit
Allows users to create a custom postbit (must be validated before use)
Allows Admin to create custom postbits for some users/usergroups only (not fully tested yet)

WARNING: This Hack isn't finished yet. Use it at your own risk. The structure of the Hack can change dramatically in the future..
I'm not responsible for any problems occuring by using this BETA. (There shouldn't be any but who knows )

Current Work:
All Adminfunctions are included in cpostbit.php now.
this would change in one of the next versions, im currently working on ACP-Integrations

I dont think this hack is a really good idea because of the HTML directly. Perhaps just allowing them to add/remove colors and profile fields is the best choice. People can really mess up a board if the HTML for a certain postbit is completely wrong. Then how do you know which user it is cause the entire forum template would be jumbled.

Like traekwon said above, don't let users you don't trust create them, plus if I read Xenon's post correctly they have to be approved by admins before they can be used.

Ok i'll describe it a bit more:
User can create their own postbit, just they can use it then.
Before they can use it it needs to be validated by an admin.
As already said, there have to be some parts in it like $username aso.
Also i have made a small checkroutine so the cannot use <script>-tags.

it's planned to add an option for user not showing any custom postbits in threads.

also as all hacks this one would be customizable so if you just want to allow mods a custom postbit you can add a small if clause...

A new screenshot of the version i'm currently working on
it's not uploaded yet because i have to finish a few steps before i can upload it, but it's getting finished very soon

on the screenshot you can see the newest postbit choosing screen. you can see a postbit completly different in using the tables.
also you can see the red text "not validated yet".
if you choose such a postbit, you'll get an error.

also the edit links just occurs at postbits created by this author (the last one isn't created by this user so he can just choose it but not edit (it's a postbit usable for his whole usergroup))

This is awesome, mostly when I've just started on a new postbit design for my newest style on my forum

Keep up the good work Xenon
