[milagros]

what do you think about possibility to add file to message (some limits - 10kBs or 100kBs)
it would be easy to attach .lev or .rec file here without any link anywhere

It's pretty advanced MOD and I fear I would fucked up the board so I won't do this before I know better these MOD things. I will install that statistics MOD for first at least. Would this attachment MOD be even needed?

Maybe it could be allowed only in the Replays and Times forum or something like that. It might come in handy for people who want to promote their levels or people who want to show their replays, and similar things.
If I could do it, and it wouldn't slow down the forum a lot, I'd go for it.

i also think that would be great....
