will the test site work if I dont mess around with the attachments, avatars etc...I dont car if it looks bad, just wanna make sure the site works and it was transfered correctly.

One last question. Would this be the final procedure to update my site as it sits on my new sever before changing the DNS.
Turn off my board.
Use backup function from cPanel to back up these data bases from the current server.
Home Directory
MySQL Databases
Email forwarders configuration
Email filters configuration
Then uses cpanel from my new server to upload those files to the new server. Change DNS settings to new servers, open board back up. Does that seem corrent?
