Instructions are included for:

Looks cool but how about some screen shots.

You were a little bit too fast ^^

I had forgotten to add the screenshot and was about to add it ^^

The rules indicate that you must supply a text file for people who do not have the HTL hack installed. Please add a txt file or I will delete this hack.

[TomokiG]

Currently I'm working on adding an interesting feature and preparing a install-textfile for non-HTL-users. With the next version which will be posted today or tomorrow this hack can be used with or without the HTL.

[EDIT]
Update done... now with non-HTL-installation...

Can someone tell me what HTL is??? Is HTL a server support software or something?
