This is very amateur, but I am not a coder, just thought someone without much knowledge may find this helpful. I feel this small template modification may increase user registrations since it has the ability to quickly show that you have games on your site.
This is a simple modification, not intended for advanced users as these images are static and not at all randomized, etc. But atleast if someone humors me and clicks install someday I will feel special.
Also if you see that I'm not showing the correct way, or a proper way to do something here, please let me know so I can correct it in case someone ever does use this.
Here's a screenshot:
Here's what to do:
In your FORUMHOME template, find $navbar.
Between $navbar and <!-- main --> add this:
This is assuming that you have the five packaged vbarcade games, and you have installed the first two additional available (Breakout & Simon).
You will have to change the location reference for each of the above icons to the ID that your arcade games are listed under. In other words the above links will bring you to where my games are, but each install may produce a different game ID, do hover your mouse over your game to find out it's unique id.
If you think my modification is pointless, sorry lol.
