#62 Announce interface changes
This patch implements a number of changes in Announce. Mostly
they are to make announcements more story lead rather than
category lead.
1) separates the view_small and view_full displays into different
content boxes so you can place them differently or use different box
styles.
2) moves the settings in conf/config.php into the database and
provides a web based config for them.
3) allows the view_small title to be a clickable link.
4) allows you to specify a thumbnail icon or create one from the
main image. The thumbnail is clickable in view_small and links to
the story not a category.
5) fixes an imagetypes bug
6) removes tables from the templates.
Attached is a full archive and a diff from 0.10.1

Double Ack. sourceforge isn't letting me update the file. It's easy enough
to change though.

Because the announcements are in a new content variable, you need to re-
initialize the module with layout.
Do this in layout admin by hitting 'refresh boxes'.

Killing this patch off. DO NOT USE.
The cvs source now has most of these implemented other than splitting the view which seems to be too dangerous for some people. Maybe I'll revisit
that again sometime.
