All opinions of course.. I was able to make a few styles that our members liked, I've also seen several nice 4.x styles.
IMO the style system is better than the 3.x series, but again.. just my opinion.

PS.. what's this "best template designers in the VB world" I'll be sure not to recommend them.

The ad spots are very limited! For those of us that make a living off our sites the spots and ability to ad new spots (there is none) makes VB4 a definate NO UPGRADE.
PS.. they are the exact same ones that are in 3.7 +

I feel like IB took over and wants everyone's sites to not make $ and all look the same. It would mean less customer support issues.
Do you have anything to back this claim up?

It seems now that they are trying to force us to upgrade. Great....
Once again, no one is FORCED to do anything.. you always have options

I want to use the new tech but not at the cost of losing $ and dealing with managing nightmares.
Do you generally use the latest and greatest of everything?
Have you ever ran into problems with other items using this route?

I have 3 dedicated servers running my site. My host said they would not support VB4 if upgraded to. Too buggy for them, this was yesterday!
You must have a crappy host than who has no idea what they're talking about
