    The Defcon Forum News Ticker

    You can find the new News Ticker at:
    http://forum.defcon.org/ticker2.php

    This has several functions. For instance, you can use it with the MS windows Taskbar, or in Xwndows, etc.

    For windows:
    Right click on task bar ---> Go to toolbars ---->New toolbar
    Then enter the URL

    For xwindows:
    You should be smart enough to figure it out.

    For mac people:
    Uhm, maybe freaky could write something up. He is our resident mac guy.


    PS: Feel free to make mods to the code. Change the colors, get rid of usernames or reply counts. Do whatever you want. You can e-mail me the revised code at nulltone@willhaven.org. I'll then post other tickers, for instance, if blackwave makes a ticker with better colors and a new feature, I will name it tickerbw.php. People can still choose to use the original ticker.

      I think it could use ALOT of modding.
      Avatars are an interesting idea, but I think making the news ticker more compact...thats a good idea.
      Color should be changed...should match the color of the forum...
      There are a bunch of other things that could be added. Perhaps a link to the most recent post instead of the thread itself.
      You'd have to know stuff about vBulletin. My knowledge of PHP and vBulletin is quite limited, so we'd need someone else to revise it.

        Maybe I'll add it to my website.
