New PM's in Header (blinking text or image)

Since I don't really like the the PM window notification alert built in VB, I wanted to have a little link in the header that blinks and tell me (no matter what page i view at the moment) that I have a new PM from one of the users.

The link is invisible by default. When you get a message, it starts to [high]blink[/high].

The good part about this hack is that you don't have to edit the database and also that you can customise it through the VB template system. The Java script that makes the link to blink doesn't insert any [high]onLoad();[/high] in <body>, so it will work independently from any other Java scripts you inserted in your pages.
This hack will work in both, IE and Netscrape.

Sweet! Easy to install, and it really works! Hard to ignore a flashing link at the top of the page.

Good work nakkid, keep em coming
