I'm trying to decide how to wrap this all together. I dont do any tracking of posts made (other than a text file listing all posts, ips and usernames). I agree some of the suggestions above would be nice; I'm just not sure how pratical they can be to add. (Right now a PNG is crated each time a new post is made and is fairly simple; tracking locations and redrawing the PNG without an item would involve tracking text and locations - not overly difficult; but certainly not trivial).
I dont mind sharing the code when it's ready. I just have to document it.
