Interesting approach for snagging the images... It's not a caching script [no expire headers that I see] but it's smart.
We found a middle-ground that I like and will let people upload an image through the individual product adder, resize that into a 400x400, 100x100 and 40x40 to use or, for those using the bulk import, they can specify each of these paths and resize how they see fit.

It wasn't adding in any sign until I manually put it in the productforums_listed_bit template. What I mean by multiple currency support is on a per product basis. Some products are manufactured in other countries and are small scale enough to only be purchasable through the manufacturer - in these cases the product is listed in, say, british pounds, or japanese yen - not us dollars. So when we add a single product, or import a large amount of products, the all have to have the same currency currently.

Actually they don't... The $ is simply a phrase that you can remove leaving the price as whatever you type. You can enter that as $199 199 CAD, € 199, etc. As long as it's UTF-8 it will save and show.
As I'll note below there's a difference between putting things into the DB because you can and because most people will use it if you do. Adding a field for product-by-product currency is not likely to be used much, making it possible through the field type, same result.

So when is 1.3.0 coming out because I'm still having formatting issues. :) I haven't tried CSS yet, but I have tried all manner of html and bbcode, it all seems to get stripped. It also ignores all <br> style code and carriage returns. Your screenshot here shows at least bullets, but there is no text above to demonstrate if it will successfully process spacing and/or indentation. Is this possible in the current version? If so, how is it done?

I've had no issues with breaks or lists but it seems like vBulletin css is overriding a lot of tags thus you get no bold with <strong>, etc. I hate saying it's not our fault but it's not... Your css, your forum settings, not ours to control :(
BBCode is safer even if it's more limited... So that's that.

Also, in the config it may be handy to, say, put a checkbox next to the fields you want displayed on the "add product" form. As is our case we want the Registered Users group to be able to add products but we have no use for some of those fields. I just edited the template to remove them but that will get lost with any upgrades v.s. you storing what fields we want in the db.

Good suggestion but again it's time versus return. Everything we make a database option has to be built on the backend and sorted out on the front. So if for example purchase links were dynamic you'd need to have that field accessible and a way to mark fields as urls. How about price + currency? Headline vs substringing the main details? Think that through a bit and the next release would be 6 months out.
We'll be adding some dynamic fields to 1.3 taking in more data but this will be in the form of sub-rankings and either 1-5 or yes/no. Two flavors that we can easily predict and handle to extend no matter how many are enabled.
Basically it's finding that happy medium between what would be nice and what's used by most forums. Mods are a starting place and if you're not customizing them, you're not doing it right :D

Having an option to enable/disable the forumdisplay.php modification instead of having to edit the templates manually.

As noted in the install file, vBulletin doesn't provide a hook to replace the contents of that template so scream, post, beg, ask, that's _unfortunately_ what it's going to take to make the change.
