Default welcome message

"Welcome back to These Old Boards. Your last visit was Jun 21 2005, 08:01 PM."

That's what the little welcome message says at the moment. Is there coding to make it say:

"Welcome back to These Old Boards, <membername>. Your last visit was Jun 21 2005, 08:01 PM."

I've seen that on some other forums, but can it be duplicated on Forumer forums?

Scary!!! Thank you so much for pointing that out, I've changed it. I wonder why it doesn't do that on my monitor?
