You know, I've only worked with vB4 styles a little bit. And I while I kinda see the issue, I also kinda don't see the issue. I mean, sure, it's not the easiest thing the world. But then, when I got into vBulletin, it took me years to figure out what the CSS options did, too. Sure, I didn't know what I was doing back then, but from my perspective, the only thing I'm really seeing is I have something else I have to learn. Which pretty much is the story of my life when it comes to coding in general. Nothing has changed for me. And even the CSS in vB3 doesn't do what I want it to a lot of the time. It's just familiar. Not necessarily better.

I do have to disagree with Boofo in this last post, though. I'm convinced you can do anything you want in CSS that you could do with tables. The only difference, you won't necessarily be able to do it easily. Or quickly. Or within the year. But I've almost always found a solution if I look long and hard enough. The week long breaks in between notwithstanding.

I think as much as CSS may be the standard, we're still just not used to it. It's still the horseless carriage to our stagecoach. Faster, more modern, but not as friendly or as easy to brush.
