Hello everyone!

As the title may have hinted, I've been an IPB user for almost 2 years and I recently converted to vBulletin because I found out that it is supported by more people and more hacks are available to cater to my needs. Plus more search engine friendly, I have heard.

On my 5 previous IPB boards I always had a few modifications installed to kick off the forum. These are:

-A good server-side include mod that would export basic things from my forum to the main website. Basic things meaning: posts from the news forum, forum stats, top posters, latest topics and everything else basic.

-An auto image-resize mod that would limit the sizes of pictures in the threads.

-A donation mod that allows members to donate and possibly track them via a list of donators to be seen by everyone.

-A gallery mod that would let users post images to be seen and possibly rated by all members.

-A reputation mod.

Please do recommend this beginner to some links that would lead me to my needs. I am quite new to the site and am not familiar with the best mods for the above categories.

Thanks!

These are default for vB.

Why not 3.6?

I just feel like it since 3.6 is still quite new.
