Looks great...
Few questions please:
1.Is integrated with TinyPortal?...will show the footer menu on first page...tinyportal default page?
2.Can be the text left arranged  on each column? for me is ugly to be centered...sorry ....
I will use it if that's will be possible ....

Great job!

Mick.

It will show everywhere. Where ever the SMF credit show, so is the menu. So it show with any portal.

I don't like them centered either. I'm changing that to normal (left).

I may add a fifth column tho'.  Make it 25 links like I did in my forum.

It's a quick fix. I'm at work now. This evening should be updated.

Just a suggestion mate, how about make it so you can have a heading, so you put a word in there like Links or our friends or something :) also an option to open links in a new page :)

Thanx King.

Tonite I'm adding:

-5th column for a total of 25 links.
-Heading to each column with fields in admin. Text will show in bold.
-uncenter the links.

Mick.

It will be like this:

This is actually a real cool idea. Nice. :)

Mick.

Thanx guys.  It came to mind when my forum toolbar was running out room for links.  First i hard coded it and later thought in making it into a mod and share it.

Glad yalls like it.  ;)

I like it!!!
I will use your mod, is great and useful and in my opinion this mod should be default in SMF or at least in some portals like TP, SimplePortal, etc.

I think you forgot something: please provide in mod description the location to access this mod(I search for 5 minutes second time when I try to edit him  ;D). I think will be an useful information!

And will be great if the bold Heading can have another color(not black) for example the same color as link's have!

Great JOB!
This is what was missing for SMF in my opinion!

Off-topic
BTW In your website : http://www.chevyavalancheclub.com/ you have a script, jscript who look great and I search it in this version but I didn't find it, the script who show 10 pictures, auto-change the pictures and have a linkable description on the picture. Q: Can you please share that script ?

I'll update the mod so the headings use colors from the theme.
I didn't thought of that ;)
