glo - Yes, it should be possible replicate that page. Everything is controlled by templates, so it should just be a matter of modifying the html in the templates to fit your needs
madhouse - If you'll refer to
this post, it will tell you how to add the options to turn those templates on/off in the Admin CP.
jarvis - It's been quite a while since v2.0 and I don't think I even have a copy on my computer to compare 3.2 to anymore. Unfortunately I think your best bet would be to uninstall the script, and then do a new install of 3.2. You should be able to follow the same instructions though to have multiple instances of the script working, but if you have any problems let me know and I'll be glad to help.
ivanmcp - I'm not sure if there would be a way to do that without having quite a few additional queries on your homepage. I tried testing a few methods but didn't see a good way to do that without a lot of queries, or quite a bit of extra work. If you don't mind having an additional query on the page for each thread you have displayed then I can tell you how you could do it that way, but I wouldn't recommend it.
