3- Are you saying that instead of how attachments are displayed now... you would like them displayed like the Media Boxes in vB articles?

Yes, the way the thumbs are shown in v3article makes the article-style forums stand out more. Combined with the a more visual ratingstyle (see request 2) it would give your mod a much more professional look

Yes, it does. My mistake. This request should have been combined with the next:

This feature would be fantastic. Many of my articles start with a bold title and then a contentlist. This is nice when you read the article, but complete pointless for the 'feature this article' option. Filling in a summary which can be displayed for the 'random article' and 'featured article' option is the sollution.
I've waited a long time before v3articles became stable for 3.0.3. Finally a few weeks back hacks were posted that fixed the thumbnails issue and the administration of the catagories. But at the same time your mod was posted. I just love the way it works. Because it's completely visually integrated to the messageboard (contrary to all others that are a sort of a sub-messageboard) this will be my article mod. Fantastic!
Another request: a page break option. I saw that Cinq's mod had this. This would be a great addition also to your mod.
