Reply Flood Fix 1.0.0 Prevents a user from posting duplicate replies within the same topic (the user can duplicate another user's post within the same topic, but not his or her own). Duplication is determined by checking the new post's text against previous post's text, topic ID and user ID. 76

Backgrounds

Images are entered similarly to Header image, etc. The scripts determine whether the theme background entry is an image or color and writes the proper body tag. 133
