This is a very simple hack, yet I kinda like it.
Don't you just hate it when you write a long PM to someone, send it, and he doesn't even notice it?!
NO MORE!
Install this very easy hack and no one will be able to ignore the PM again.
This is almost just a template hack, but since it does involve editing a file and adding 4 lines of PHP code, it qualifies as a hack.
Sue me.
Anyway, what does this hack do?
Whenever you come to the forum main page, and you have any unread messages (even if they aren't new), the category strip that says "Private Messages" will blink.
Simple, but effective.
To see a demo of this, just send yourself a PM and see what happens. I'm sure you'll like it.
Installing this will take you 2 minutes if not less, it's very very simple.
I also don't expect too many support requests.
Anyway, have fun!

2. Also, about the javascript function. Do I have to put it after the last line in the template? I don't know where since I don't have "</smallfont></td></tr>"
i saw a request for blinking background images and didnt see a reply. here is how to do it.
1)upload 2 images into the forums/images folder that you want to blink
2)add this line to the template insteade of the original:
[code]<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
$pmblink pmBox.backbround='{imagesfolder}/img1.gif';
$pmblink setInterval("Timer()", 500);
$pmblink x=1;
function Timer() {
set=1;
if(x==0 && set==1) {
pmBox.background='{imagesfolder}/img1.gif';
x=1;
set=0;
}
if(x==1 && set==1) {
pmBox.background='{imagesfolder}/img2.gif';
x=0;
set=0;
}
}
// End -->
</script>
*note: replace the img1.gif and img2.gif with the file names that you uploaded
I've posted a questions 4 posts before and didn't get any reply.
I assume that I couldn't explain the issue.
Here I attach the forumhome_pmloggedin template to show you what I have.
I don't know how to apply that hack since my template has id="AutoNumber1".
Any suggestion for how to get that hack working?

I have a similar problem, my template says:
The instructions say:
/======================================\
| In the template forumhome_pmloggedin |
| find this: |
\======================================/
bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}"
/======================================\
| Before that, add this code: |
\======================================/
id="pmBox"
My template has:
<tr id="cat">
<td bgcolor="{categorybackcolor}"
So do I do the following: <tr id="cat" id="pmBox"> ?
