Ok, I'll bite ... how do you apply unique styles to individual forums? ;)

In the control panel. You just set it to make the forum style override the user's choice.

Yes ma'am. You are correct. :classic:

Oh, ok, I thought you were talking about something else.

It is very rude to flame his suggestions when he is just trying to help, good or bad suggestion, you really should say thanks to Fasherman.

You're very right... Sorry Fasherman. :(

Can someone explain to me what a Blog actually is? I've never messed with any of it and I hear about it all the time. What is the difference between a Blog and something like Amykhar's Userpage Mod?

blogging alternative but it's a far cry from actual blogs. thanks for sharing none the less.

A blog works similarly to a forum in that a user makes a post about something and people can comment on it. The main difference is that the whole of the post is shown on the main page and to view the comments you go to another page.

I tried making what FASherman is talking about a while ago but didn't get round to finishing it.

The thing is, by modifying the templates and applying a different style to one forum or category you can easily transform vB into another kind of software like a blog or an article system with comments etc. vBulletin is by design forum software but with a bit work it can easily become something else.

Thanks for explaing that. ;)

Then, basically, if you take Amykhar's Userpage hack and re-work it a little, that could be made into a member blog then, right?
