Installing as we speak. Thank you for sharing. Nice addition to my site, since I am using an announcement most of the time.

Hi,

Very cool addition and it looks great on my board.

The only downer I found was that when I use subforums, like in my development board (supah secret one hehe) it puts the announcement in between them. You have a way that it will be on top, even if you have sub forums? See screenshot. It is ok if you don't, because I only use sub forums at extremly rare occassions.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
