</tr>


<tr>

<td colspan="1" width="150" height="25" class="topictitle" nowrap="nowrap">{MYFF.USERRANKS}</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td colspan="1" width="150" height="25" class="topictitle" nowrap="nowrap">{MYFF.ANNOUNCE show_results="topics"}</td>
</tr>

You can even set it up to appear on a special web page like below.
