screenshot of live site currently running vBulletin 4.0.2 with unreleased version of the awards system.

This is my site that we test on to check during live environments.

Sweet! Can't wait for update!

One important thing I forgot to add... This feature needs to be implemented!...

If an award is already issued, warn the "award distributer" that the following users have the awards after they decide to give them out, and have the option to cross them off the list, and continue giving awards out.

Can you implement this in next release please? we have a large community at www.brotherhoodofgamers.com and its hard to keep track who has what already.

its work with vb 4.0.2 ???

Do the images that can be used for awards, do they have to be a specific resolution in order to work with the award system?

I just wanted to say that I loved this hack on 3.8. And am very excited to upload it to 4. I just upgraded from 3.8.5 to 4.0.2. I had the yas disabled during upgrade.
My question is will the rc1 release of this work with 4.0.2 or should I wait.

Also I wanted to say thank you for all the hard work and I am so sorry some people are so rude. And i really appreciate this mod and the work you have done

also what and where do you put this Default CSS Data.txt
