The problem has been identified, and we are actively working on a resolution. There is no impact to user data or functionality, this is strictly a front-end display issue. We’ll post an update once the fix has been deployed. Thanks for your patience while we get this sorted.

-Lose the images in posts and sigs.
-Lose the tags
-No custom avatars

Essentially, make it as much like it now as possible on the frontend while making the backend easier for you guys.

I agree

The reason I like AT forums is because of the layout. It's easy to navigate and I find it easier to read. The post is in one place, the user info in another (the left hand side)

I also like that pics aren't automatically placed into the threads
 
DerekWilson: if you need any help on the theming end of things, I might be willing to help, and I have experience. Shoot me a PM if interested.

There are tons of vB themes out there to choose from, it may not be an easy decision for the admins to make on what skin is best to use for the new forum.

I don't know... I thought the same thing for a while myself... but then they put out a real beta test. Things are looking pretty good right now IMO.

The same could be said for Duke Nukem 3D

Useful vbulletin plugin is needed - auto image resizer, techpowerup forums has this. Loads the image then makes it resized to 800x600, clicking it will make it full size again but it prevents side scrolling.

I think I mentioned this in the plugin suggestion thread but I thought I'd mention it here too.

Was I replying to a useful comment? Was there really something I should have contributed there?

My first post actually had a point. The current theme of the Vb forums looks extremely dated.
 
Please please PLEASE make the reply/quote/PM editors popup in a separate window like they do now! I HAAAAAAATE the vB posting interface!
