Weird, because postbit_control_background stylevar is what controls the background of this.

I doubt vSA picks these up auto, he'll need to add support for it.

Also, if I can't move it around within my templates, that is bad - the little carrot thing looks very ugly and was the first thing I was looking forward to removing. Now, I hear we can't adjust any of it.

Postbit footer:
How about a dropdown within the postbit footer for thanks/likes/dislikes? This would only use 1 space in the postbit footer and still look ok in lower resolutions. Currently the extra bar is cartoonish with the icons and takes up WAY too much space.

The thanks notifications take up *too much space* as well. You should consider doing something like (in order):
===
Users below thank/like/dislike this post:
Thanks: joe1, job3, marylamb42, joesmama Likes: sally, tom42, walmartlover96 Dislikes: user4, unclejoe5
===
Use horizontal space as much as you can. You are wasting a ton of valuable real estate.

I would also advise:
Look at the history of successful vBulletin addons that sell pro versions. Give away the Abe converter/reports for free but make likes and dislikes part of the pro version. Go back to drawing board and you could make a ton of money before Abe gets his stats/dislikes working again. Replicate all his functions and reports from 3.8 version. If you keep reports/converter only pro version then we do not have the opportunity to test it on our test forums and switch it to our live with hundreds of thousands of thanks and millions of posts and we will be very apprehensive to purchase.
Thanks for your suggestions, could I please ask you to post them on Project Tools on our site instead?
When it's time to evaluate new versions, we don't have time to look through general support requests to spot the individual suggestion

As for your problems, what exactly didn't work with it?
And what do you mean, carrot thing?
