+Copyright: 2004-2007 nullbie, 2005-2010 Thief
+Addons page: http://nightly.miranda.im/
+Beta site: http://nightly.miranda.im/
+Forum thread: 
+
+REQUIREMENTS:

+
+Thanks to:
+nullbie, who gave me the sources and for helping with development
+Faith Healer for ideas and feedback
+foxter.ru for first splashes design (I really like them)
+Miranda project for the greatest IM client ever :)
+
+Version history:
+
+0.1.2.2 beta
+[-] Crash fix by George Hazan
+
+0.1.2.1 beta
+[-] Fixed: wrong absolute path was used for preview
+[-] Fixed: preview function completely stops working when closing splash by right click (thx m0003r)
+[-] Enabled and fixed tab navigation in options
+[*] Updated langpack
+
+0.1.2.0 beta
+[!] Switched to advaimg.dll for processing pngs, png2dib is not used anymore
+[+] Plugin API changes: added uuid (C64CC8E0-CF03-474A-8B11-8BD4565CC) and MIID_SPLASHSCREEN interface (91CB1E8D-C33C-43C0-BDD8-6725B070B3E0)
+[+] Added an option to show Miranda version on splash (more options to be implemented)
+[+] Added environment variables support (%PROFILEPATH%, %APPDATA%, etc.)
+[+] Added Ini param to point to config file (aware of environment variables support, thus makes possible to use different ini-es for different profiles)
+[*] Removed mp3 support (was too buggy, will reimplement eventually)
+[*] When random feature is enabled file name is omitted from path when selecting a new file
+
+0.1.1.7 beta
+[+] Experimental mp3 playback support
+[-] Fix for long standing (from 0.1.1.x) 24-bit images loading issue (thx nullbie)
+[-] Fix for thread hang
+[-] Hopefully fixed "splash not closing" problem on some configurations
+[*] Random feature searches only for valid extensions - bmp and png
+[*] Redesigned options page a bit
+[*] Langpack changes
+[*] Alot of other changes, reorganizations and fixes
+
+0.1.1.6 beta
+[-] Fixed "Display time" option. Now should be really working. If you want splash to be closed after Miranda fully loaded set it to 0
+[-] Fixed: sometimes splash wasn't autoclosed with TimeToShow = 0
+[*] Display time option can accept values up to 20000 mseconds
+[*] Dinamically linked build is removed from archive to avoid cluttering of miranda root folder when using Updater.
+[*] Code cleanup
+
+0.1.1.5 beta
+[+] Updater support for betas (don't forget to enable "Use beta?" option in Updater settings)
+[+] Dinamically linked build (you'll need MSVCR71.dll to run it)
+[-] Another workaraund for crash when opening options due to regression
+[-] Fix for the "Play sound" check
+[*] A small change to options page
+[*] Langpack addition
+
+0.1.1.4 beta
+[+] Option to scan a folder and select random file for display
+[+] Added a service (see m_splash.h for details) (thx MiCHi for inspiration)
+[-] Fix: the Apply button was enabled every time options were opened with SplashScreen page
+[*] Added third state to PlaySound checkbox in options. Means not to follow global sound state
+[*] Reduced dll size due to switch to VS2003
+[-] Some other minor fixes
+
+0.1.1.2
+[*] ini file removed from archive, it will be created automatically on startup if not exists
+[-] Version bump in order to fix wrong updater notifications in previous version (sorry for that)
+[!] Known issue: won't load non 32-bit splash image
+
+0.1.1.1
+[-] A little fix for options page
+
+0.1.1.0
+[!] Switched to png2dib (v0.1.3.x or later) for png processing (Faith Healer wins ;P). Imgdecoder no longer needed.
+[-] Fixed inability to use absolute path(s)
+[+] Options to control Display time and Fade in/out (somewhat temporary solution)
+[*] Translation additions.
+
+0.1.0.6 (not published)
+[+] When sounds disabled in miranda disable it in splash screen (thx +eRRikon for suggestion)
+
+0.1.0.5
+[*] Renamed dll into AdvSlashScreen to increase loading priority on NTFS file systems
+[+] New ini option: TimeToShow, defines time (in msecs) how long splash should stay on screen 
+[+] Added ability to play sound
+[+] URL to File Listing page of plugin
+[+] Can use mirandaboot.ini as config (if splash.ini not found)
+[*] Little cleanup: splash.ini goes into /plugins, /splash into root dir (default locations)
+[-] Changing fading setings at options page directly affect preview
+[*] Now fadeouts when closed via leftclick
+
+0.1.0.4
+[!] First release on FL
+[+] Options to enable fade in/out 
+[*] Splash preview disappears after 2 secs (thx nullbie)
+[*] OpenFile dialog now uses last used folder as initial

+[+] Option to control plugin activity
+
+0.1.0.3
+[+] Preview button in options (rightclick to hide splash)
+
+0.1.0.2

+[*] Using config instead of hardly coded values
+[-] Workaround for crash when plug is disabled and opening options dialog
+
+0.1.0.1
+[+] Win 9x "alfa channel" trick
