Custom IP: Logged

Some of you may feel like I do about (IP: Logged)... a great feature but certainly an eyesore. Here's a way to semi-hide it from visitor's and still have the IP: Logged function available to admin's and mod's. A custom STYLE - (color= #000000; text decoration: none) is used to hide the link. Change the color to whatever suits your color scheme, if you remove (color= #000000 it will default to your link color, or you could replace the style tag with a class tag from your own style sheet. Have fun, I hope some of you find this useful.
