I do not care about the "look" of a CMS. What I care about in a CMS is functionality, if it's easy to use, good coding (back & front), easy to update etc. The design in the templates can be done by any graphic designer, you do not need vbulletin for that. In fact, it's best if vbulletin keeps de default design as simple as possible (Google style) and then make it very easy to work with the xhtml and css in templates so customers can build their own layouts.

Damn looks brilliant!

You guys know vBulletin has a custom template feature, right?

The people complaining about the look and feel are hilarious. It is the default style! Don't be lazy and customize it! haha, thanks for the good laugh though.

I will be buying/installing.

Really Nice...Profiles Look Like Facebook But The Design Its like an Exactly Copy of Joomla :S

First impressions is everything, even if it is a "default" layout. So lol right back at ya.

think i just wait for 5.0
since the hole web 2.0 is soemthing new for the devs at vb and honestly i dont like it. Features are quite weak compares to other bulletinboard
not the worth for the 250 dollars upgrade for now
as the previous poster
4.0 is vista lol

wordpress still the best...

Jelsoft still don't get it, their suite needs a 'stream', a downloads tool and a decent picture album...

Not overly impressed even if it is the default.

I use Joomla aside from my VB site, and the first thing I thought, was Joomla.

One question - most of us will have mods etc attached to our boards, and reading between the lines (correct me if I'm wrong), they are unlikely to work...given some of the addons are "critical" to my forum, are we going to have to wait until the coders translate them over ? Or, will they work on 4.0 ?

Not migrating until I know at least some of the core mods I require will work, or at any rate, have had access to a VB demo site running 4.0
