An unimportant, minor request, but I'll put it in while I'm thinking about it...
I'm picturing a UBB code like this:
[localtime]12/14/2004 11:00pm[/localtime]
The date/time in the middle is universal mean time (Greenwich mean time). But in people's browsers it gets adjusted to their local time via some PHP magic. So then I could post a message containing this:
Contest entries must be submitted by Local Time:12-14-2004 at 11:00 PM.
...and if you were in Amsterdam and had set your timezone in your profile to match, the message would say:
Contest entries must be submitted by 12/15/2004 12:00am.
Another useful UBB along the same lines that would be ultra-deluxo to have:
That gives you [untiltime]12/14/2004 11:00pm[/untiltime] to come up with a contest entry.
...which generates something like:
That gives you negative 1033 weeks, 2 days to come up with a contest entry.
