In the Group Notice plugin? Currenlty my message is to many chars and I can't get it all on it.

So I want to set a maxium amount of chars, here is the 1 and only file of the mod:

<?php
$plugins->add_hook('admin_user_groups_edit', 'gn');
$plugins->add_hook('admin_user_groups_edit_commit', 'gn_do');
$plugins->add_hook("index_start", "gn_notice");

function gn_info()
{
	return array(
		'name'			=> 'Group Notice',
		'description'	=> 'Allows you to set a notice displayed to certain groups.',
		'website'		=> 'http://www.coderzplanet.net',
		'author'		=> 'Jammerx2',
		'authorsite'	=> 'http://www.coderzplanet.net',
		'version'		=> '1.0',
		'guid'        => '7027f0d07a6a84e998eea8ef6b62bda3'
	);
}

function gn_activate()
{
global $mybb, $db;
	$db->query("ALTER TABLE `".TABLE_PREFIX."usergroups` ADD `gn` VARCHAR(1500) NOT NULL");


	$gn = array(
		"title" => "group_notice",
		"template" => "<style>
.gnotice {
    background: #D6ECA6;
    border-top: 2px solid #8DC93E;
    border-bottom: 2px solid #8DC93E;
    text-align: center;
    margin: 10px auto;
    padding: 5px 20px;
}
</style>
<p class=\"gnotice\"><b>{\$notice}</b></p>
<br>",
		"sid" => -1,
		"dateline" => TIME_NOW
	);
	
	$db->insert_query("templates", $gn);

	include MYBB_ROOT."/inc/adminfunctions_templates.php";
	
	find_replace_templatesets("index", "#".preg_quote("{\$header}")."#i", "{\$header}\r\n{\$gn}");
}

function gn_deactivate()
{
global $mybb, $db;
	$db->query("ALTER TABLE ".TABLE_PREFIX."usergroups DROP `gn`");

	include MYBB_ROOT."/inc/adminfunctions_templates.php";
	
	find_replace_templatesets("index", "#".preg_quote("\r\n{\$gn}")."#i", "", 0);

	$db->delete_query("templates", "title = 'group_notice'");

}

function gn()
{
global $plugins;
$plugins->add_hook("admin_formcontainer_output_row", "gn_row");
}

function gn_do()
{
global $db, $mybb, $usergroup;
	
	$update_array = array(
		"gn" => $db->escape_string($mybb->input['gn']),
	);

	$db->update_query("usergroups", $update_array, "gid='".intval($usergroup['gid'])."'");

}

function gn_row($pluginargs)
{
global $db, $mybb, $lang, $user, $form, $form_container, $usergroup;

if($pluginargs['title'] == "Miscellaneous")
{
		$gn = array(
			$form->generate_text_area('gn', $usergroup['gn'], array()),
			);
		$form_container->output_row("Group Notice", "Set a group notice that will be displayed to members of this group.", "<div class=\"group_settings_bit\">".implode("</div><div class=\"group_settings_bit\">", $gn)."</div>");
}
}

function gn_notice()
{
	global $db, $mybb, $templates, $gn, $notice;
	
	if($mybb->usergroup['gn'] != "")
	{
	$notice = $mybb->usergroup['gn'];	

	eval("\$gn = \"".$templates->get("group_notice")."\";");
	}
}
?>

Can I get help on this?
