Will that work? When a person hits the reply button won't they see the code you specified?

Beermonster's right. When they hit the reply button, the code is already parsed. They will see their name and not the code itself.

Thank you, Sandy.

Don't forget to click the install button, my friend.

As far as a screenshot goes, that's kind of hard to do since it would only show my name, anyway. Any idea how to do it to show what you mean?

just show users, how this awesome thing would work.
show them 2 images. first [you] code on normal forums.
and [you] code after installting ur hack.

tell them whenever someone else views you code. readers will see there name in it instead of the you code..
possibly including a big image. which has cut-outs of everything included.

i havent yet done the upgrade. else i would have done that small thing for ya bro...

Best of Luck again for this nice hack

Best Regards,
Sandy...
