Wow. This is a bit, different.

I love the default, normal vBulletin FORUMHOME....I suppose... This could take some time getting use to, for me, but I still like what I see.

Template is great. Not too hard on the eyes. Love the PHPBB postbit incorporation, looks really good.

I'm proud for ya. Just a question though? Was this PHPBB style postbit something you wrote up or is there a mod for this? Pretty neat, might I add. Haven't focused on PHPBB since 2005, something new to me entirely.

Thanks! :) I've gotten PM's asking me to release the postbit_legacy code :)
And the template is something I wrote up. I've always like the phpBB's postbits.

And I was going for something VERY different. I wanted my boards to be unique.

Plus that whole three click rule. All my boards are accessible via forum home.

Oh that's awesome. I wasn't sure if it was over in the mod section or what not. Good for you man. I wish you the best of luck with your site and I hope it brings you a lot of happiness to watch it grow and grow, if you know what I mean. :)
