With so many changes and new features added, I figured it was time to do and little code cleaning and optimization... There hasn't been a new public release since 1.5.0 because so many things have been redeveloped. Now that I"m satisfied with the stability of the new changes (mostly from 1.8.0) - here it is!

• skull.php: moved skull functions from functions.php
• Optimized: Precalculate Filtered Theme Layout State
• Improved: Sidebar Template Hierarchy System
• Improved: Sidebar Registration, Order and Labelling
• Improved: Pass Filtered Theme Layout to grid.php
• Improved: Theme Options Page Colour Scheme
• Improved: standard vtheme prefix for theme globals
• Improved: Layout Sections and Hook Global
• Added: first/last/odd/even Widget Style Classes
• Added: more documentation... about halfways there
• Fixed: duplicate ID for new site-description attribute
• Fixed: allow blank (empty) Sidebars via filtering
