How to stop animated GIFs with transparent backgrounds getting a white BG in thumbs?

I figured the solution might be ImageMagick. I've used it in the past locally through scripts, but I'm not sure about DreamHost. I'll look into this, thank you.

Both? I mean no offence. MyBB is much cleaner, but a certain plugin I seriously wanted to use in my relaunch is only available on vBulletin, and it's quite advanced with a MyBB port probably costing a lot of money. My main problem with vBulletin is how terrible the ACP is. It's so easy with MyBB to access anything I want in seconds. I'm sure you'd say I should have gone with vBulletin 3. Maybe so, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't an option when I purchased a license, and since I assumed it was probably the best option (other than vB5, ew) as suggested by the vBulletin site, 'guess I'm stuck with it now.

I do like vBulletin. It stands on its own merits despite the flaws. My main beef is with the ACP. It's an eyesore, and don't get me started on searching for things in the options. I'd hope there are mods that fix the ACP but haven't looked yet.
