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!

Are you saying you sent yourself a PM on this forum and it does not blink?
(They most likely do not have it installed)...

Or are you having a problem on your site?

I feel it is a great addition, as some people do not have notify on, and sem to forget the have a PM box... This kind of reminds them..
HEY YOU HAVE A PM!

Its very simple to add/remove.. but its all if you want it or not..

Can't really give you a SS of a blinking category BG without a bit of work..

(FYI) I just sent myself a PM , and I guess they do have it installed here.. You just can not see it very well (the colors are to close to the same)...

But send youself a PM (Do not read it when it redirects you to your inbox) , click the Forum button.. and you will see the category "» Private Messages" blinking...
