Changelog

1.2 - 11 July 2011
* Takeover by live627.
! Small tweaks to the code that don't make any difference overall.
- Removed the ability to have news items clickable and redirect to the news page - seems a waste of template edits and principle to me...
+ Tweaked the template to look nicer in my eyes. See, I'm not a fan of big boxes everywhere - adds clutter. So use one round frame, separate the news items with a margin and a padding totaling 1em, and use a dotted grey border. See figure three on the mod page.
+ And, here is my favorite part. Refactored the code to use only hooks and no file edits. SWEET! I love it when I do that! The SMF coding god has endowed his powers on me. lol. No, no deity was involved.
