Result: Simple as can be, 1 line replacement in includes/function_showthread.php

Cheers!

To each his/her own though

But it is always easier in the templates when upgrading. Templates don't get changed as often as files do.

Ahh good point, but I do compare-and-replace upgrades anyway.

You should not have to.. the hack works by changing postbit, which is built dynamically each time someone accesses the thread.

PM me if you want it. I don't want to muddle up this gentleman's thread when he released a hack for this.

I installed this rather than the template mod - much simpler in my opinion.

How can downlading a file, editing it, and re-uploading that file be simpler than a template edit? Especially on an upgrade.
