Default Embarrassingly Simple Question
The only dumb question is the one not asked, although some seem so basic as to be embarrassing to ask. Oh well. Here goes:

What is the difference between PostBit and PostBit Legacy and how do I tell which my board uses?!

Post bit is what you see here. Your name and stats are at the top of your posts.

Postbit Legacy will put all that information on the left hand side of your posts.

Just a note: many mods will make reference to changes in the postbit but its generally understood that postbit means postbit or postbit_legacy templates.

Actually on vB.org it depends on your profile settings.

For me vB.org uses postbit legacy.

Except for the first post of mods and articles. They aren't affected by the profile settings.
