My footer copyright looks like this:

I want it to look like this:

But I'm afraid I'll break something if I alter the code. What should the correct code be?

Or pay for the branding free option like I did and then you can remove it completely

Yes that is another option, I did the same thing. But some people can't afford it. So minimizing it is the way to go. :)

That would be against your purchase agreement

How would you sending him the amount for removing the branding free violate his purchasing agreement?

Correct me if I'm wrong but according to the agreement you are not allowed to remove the copyright unless you pay vBulletin a fee. So removing it without paying the fee to vBulletin is a violation of the purchase agreement.

He asked you to send him the funds, so he could purchase the branding free. :D :p

He is proposing removing the VERSION number which is perfectly okay under the agreement.

A thousand pardons. I thought he was trying to remove the copyright. That's what happens when you try to participate in a forum and work the world on your ham radio at the same time

You can remove the version number without breaking the TOS, right? I don't like broadcasting that we use an older version.

It's not hard to find out version numbers at all... But I'm with you on blatantly advertising it - it doesn't help you at all.
