Integrated MSN Hack

Hi guys. I made this hack because I was sick of just having the standard messenger fields, so I decided to make a hack that integrated the MSN Messenger Handle professionally in like the other ones. Some screenies below:

Register & Edit Profile:



User Profile View:



Postbit View:



As you can see this is integrated, and is quite different from Anime-loo's hack.

Install instructions updated!
Extra ability added - View MSN Info in Private Messages

Should this show up in the memberlist as well? I installed this with no problem, but it doesn't show up in memberlist like AIM/Yahoo

PHP Code:

if ($post[msn]!="") {
   eval("\$post[msnicon] = \"".gettemplate("msn")."\";");
} else {
   $post[msn]="";
} 


I do not understand the necessity of the else-condition in step 2. In the if-clause, you check whether $post[msn] is empty or not. If it is not empty, you evaluate the template, else (and that is if the variable is empty) you clear it. Eh?

That's because there is no necessity. It's just how some people writes the code. I myself used to do that.

vB2 has code like that all over the place. It's just to ensure the variable is empty.
