Profile Enhancements - Profile Update - myspace/facebook layout

This is a pre-pre-release beta version. I'm only releasing this for people to use as a starter for their page. This may contain bugs, and may not work correctly.

Unfortunately I don't have enough spare time to support this, so please only install this if you're confident changing things. Any ideas or suggestions please let me know.

What does this do?
This will change your profile page to have a myspace/facebook style layout.

This creates new templates so should not alter anything.

This also uses standard css classes so should fit into any skin.

It should squeeze down to 800x600 (just) and stops expanding around 1000 wide so it doesn't look too warped.

Version History
0.1 - Initial test/pre-release version

Please remember I'm unable to support this so please understand that installing this under the expectation of changing things yourself.

Also i've only been programming/using vBulletin for a month so there may be some obvious errors - please let me know if there are. I'm not usually a php coder.

I think I like the tabs better.. saves space but very nice idea!

I can help with this.
I've coded a few profile layout designs for 3.7.

If the coder who released would like help supporting this, then feel free to message me.

[Hex_legend]

Ok,

I have been playing about with this and I have added / changed a few things.

If the coder allows for me to use his code, I will release my version and I will support it

Better yet update to 3.7. This will not work with anything less as this uses the enhanced profile system your version does not.

The version I updated is 3.7 compatible.

As you can see from my site above, it is fully functional on 3.7

a cool thing is, when every user can decide if the old or this profile style will be show

I am going to try a test install right now on the test board. I will post up the results in a little bit. Hopefully all turns out ok.

Can you make it so that the user can move the info/album blocks around just like on Facebook and also make it so that only their friends can view their profiles, like make an "Add as friend" button just like on Facebook. That would see so cool!

Thanks alot. I didn't think requesting this would actually work.

Suggestions:
Remove the top online thing next to the username, since it already shows if its online or not to the right of the location the avatar should be
Also, it doesn't seem to show the avatars at all in the profiles
