I've updated the second post I made to include the zip of screenshots, just to keep the important stuff together. I also put notes for using the original card back, as well as linking to this for those who need it.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT apply this to 'triad_user'. Use 'user' as specified. Doing so will intentionally break the hack, as well as mess up the rest of the points system instructions. (v2.8 will be able to do this)
Here is the crude points system, easy enough, just follow the directions
Notes: this is NOT intended to be featureful. if its missing something you believe you NEED, then please install a conventional points hack, and uninstall this one (reverse the directions)

Upgrade hack version 2.6 to 2.7:
-For upgrade information Please see this post
Spoiler (click to open)
NEW VERSION 2.7
-Bugfixes: various game/trade/acp bugs, reverse+bonus bug, added some globals in some functions, one alert-blocking bug
-Changes: some heavy and some light template tweaks, optimizations for all stats pages, removed need of backcards in colored folders, moved many match and trade related things into functions
-Additions: match/trade pruner/rebuilder for the acp, usage stats, leaderboard stats, ai limitations system, trades track more data, new record storing, take_cards checker, guest-friendly browsing capability
And many more which I didnt keep track of....
Upgrade:
-Download the zip file in the first post, and the upgrade zip in this post. Follow the instructions in the upgrade zip.
Notes:
I removed the cron idea because it would be too server-intensive, and also harder to control. Therefor I created handy match/trade processors for the ACP, which you must use upon upgrading, to convert your data into the new datatypes used by the new version. So DONT forget to do that last step!
Be sure to click install!
I've also updated the bluecards zip, the screenshot zip, added some updated screenshots to the first post, and ordered up the features listing for the first post.
That's right, TOURNAMENTS ARE NEXT!

NEW VERSION 2.6
-Bugfixes: table_prefix, some rules, personal records, new card ordering, italics in catalog, one/difference override bug, removed some ai vulnerabilities
-Changes: vB Standard PHP/MySQL, various template tweaks, preparations for tournaments, removal of automated usercards links, better usage of globalize and actiontemplates etc, revision of pm alert system, reverse means selection is level or higher

Upgrade:

Notes:
Just because I decided against automated usercards, doesnt mean your hack cant use them.
If you are interested in creating new cards/decks for this hack, or for creating special unique cards for a particular hack user (Usercards) then download the attached card creation kit, and read the text file in it.
If anyone would like to create a new cardset for my hack, or even a new board, feel free to do so, and I'll see about including it in new versions (or having whole new decks) Many sites do this, just don't steal their images and resize them
Be sure to click install!
EDIT:
A second version of a card creation kit, along with more detailed instructions for the actual creation of the images, has been attached, thanks to AllenSam

As there were limits for uploading, i had to split off some of the images...
take this, and put the resulting images (in the bluecards folder) and put it in images/triad (along with the redcards folder)
Edit: I've uploaded the zipped SCREENSHOTS, including some that are not posted above, in this post...
