I am trying to move a site of mine. I'm trying to backup just the posts/members .. not the style.

For some reason when I just did the standard db backup in the admin panel, then imported the db to a fresh install of Vbulletin, it brought the old style along with it. And if I go to styles in admin and click 'default' it doesn't work. It keeps the old style with all the broken images (because none of the style images were transfered to the new server).

So how can I backup just the content, posts, members of the forum .. and nothing else?
