Features

The following are the features that are presently avalible in vBTimelines LITE,

Users create their own calendar.
Users become the calendar moderator for their calendar.
(Only they (and mods/admins of course) can add/edit/delete events from/to their calendar.)
Recently Added Images from user calendars.
most recently added updates are listed.
Users get Create Calendar or Jump to Your Calendar link based on if they have a calendar yet.

Why this makes sense.../What the hell would I do with that?

Users can write their own "diary" style entries.
They can input both past and future events.
Therefore it's not only a diary but a planner of sorts.
I am running a garden site. Users add entries into their "egarden"
where they can show pictures and write about their plants, veggies, and flowers.
Keep track of weather events, fertilization etc... So this is a record for them
and the community to view and learn from. You may have a similar or different use for
this so be creative. The Vbulletin calendar is the most underutilized part of VB and has exciting possibilities. I could easily see this being useful in many community's. Car modders/racers can keep a timelined gallery of their projects/acheivements, Lots of communities would enjoy a diary style utility.

Installation-

This hack is released as is, with a promise of zero support.
Not to say you'll get no reply but I have no time for support,
I'm getting married etc... so I'm too busy.

Please reply if this installation text has errors.

Screenshots

Here is the basic vbtimelines interface.

4 recent images from your users calendars, followed by a listing of 20 or so calendars with the latest updates.

Clicking an image of the recent attachments will bring you to the corresponding calendar event.
