thanx for the update bro, this is really what i was looking to do
the option of displaying awards is awsome. gr8 job

Alright. The latest version is uploaded.

The version scheme has changed. Currently, the same code-base works on both vBulletin 3.7 and vBulletin 3.8. However, with not knowing in the future if the same code-base will work 100%, the mods have been split up.

The newest build (3.7.3) has Member List Options, and a Version Information sectionin the AdminCP.

Read the release notes for the template edit for the Members List if you choose to use it.

I really hope to see this function working nicely =] cause for sites that has 100 awards they need to be displayed 10 or so awards per page etc..

Is it possible to somehow use the same system vb does of tracking post counts and other stats for automatic promotions?
