Title explains it all. What was the hardest or most frustrating hack you attemped or have executed??

Mine I'd say.. Um!!

Well the Sticky Threads hack to this day is the only hack I can not successfully execute.

The longest I spent on a hack was 30 minutes, and that was added 9 extra profile fields at once..

I now have 31 profile fields.. smile

I probably spent the most time creating the star/status hack for UBB6...runner up to this would be the Moderated Boards list for UBB5.

I spent the most time on installing the Custom Light Header Hack Full Version (or something similar). Man, that hack is huge smile

Most complex would probably be user status hacks, since I played around with modifying those to work in various different ways quite a lot of times (attempting to combine two or more of the different user text options that there were).. Never quite got the result I wanted either..

The Custom User Text & Userdefined Font Color/Glow just killed me or months until I figured out what was wrong. Besides that, nothing was hard tipsy

Considering the fact that I've only done two hacks (and really they were only template mods, so the hardcore coders here will probably snuff at me for even attempting to call them hacks)... the hardest one I've ever done would be Compact Headers.

Yo cal, isn't the copyright text supposed to be visible to the human eye? I dunno what eye you're using, but black text on a black bg doesn't look too visible to me... wink

Oh yeah, there it is...
