Jitter PM Alert Hack

Okay, this is nothing special -

I quickly made it for my board, where the flashing PM bar wouldn't have looked very good. This is a more subtle, but effective way of letting your users know when they have a PM. When someone gets a PM, the "Private Messages"
link on the front page jitters slightly, letting the user know that they have a PM.

I hope this hasn't been done before!

Just updated the code, although I think one person downloaded it first - please redownload the install file!

Off Topic:

Ultimate User Profiles - Including "ID Images", Desktop screenshot, Mini Bio, Journal, and Mini Gallery! - When is a release date for this? It sounds very good.

On Topic: That's a cool hack but maybe the jitter text might get annoying

On Topic: Only annoying if you constantly get PMs and spend all of your time on the front page

Off Topic: I've been working on vBay more recently, but I'll be continuing with this shortly...
