	Animated text support
	Automatic UTF-8 character formatting and replacing
	Super smooth Animated Holograms and hologram teleportation!

	Holographic chat bubbles with in-built support for VanishNoPacket
	TouchScreen Holograms with an extensive and easy to use API
	Floating Item displays with easy to use tags - %item:id%
	BungeeCord support for TouchScreen holograms and online count placeholders
	Supports Bukkit from 1.6.4 through to 1.7.9 and MCPC+ 1.6.4

Stay up to date and make sure you have the latest version of HoloAPI!

This extensive API is designed to provide you with the easiest, most feature packed resources for creating and managing your own holograms.

HoloAPI also uses intelligent image-translation technology (thanks to @bobacadodl) to transform ordinary images into futuristic holograms that can enhance your server in ways that you have never imagined.

Metrics is used to collect plugin statistics. Only data such as plugin version and players online is collected. If you do not wish for this data to be collected, disable it in the 'Plugin Metrics' folder of your 'plugins' directory.

HoloAPI comes with an auto-updater to save you, as a server owner, from continually checking this page for new files. It simply connects to dev.bukkit.org and compares the versions of available files. If you do not wish for HoloAPI to perform this check, navigate to the Configuration File (config.yml) in the HoloAPI directory of your plugins folder and change "checkForUpdates" and "autoUpdate" to "false". The first value disables the version comparison altogether and the second updates the plugin automatically if new files are detected.

Some of the plugins that utilise the powerful features in HoloAPI:

• Individual Holograms
• ChatBubbles
• EasyLightLevel
• Overscroll

...And many more!
