I developed this mini-mod having in mind to deliver a better interface, more info and more configurable Memberlist replacement. Of course you can use it as standalone, or change the link to your navbar to redirect to my page.
1.- What I've in mind to improve next days
To change the info given in blocks for most active with number of posts and other statistics
To change the profile in listing by adding more info (eg biography etc). All of them can be turn On/Off by admin. Also to place in profile a popup with related options (eg Email, PM, Add to Buddy etc).
To add Advanced search, but much more powerfull than vB's. This is the reason that I left empty the left side bar.
To add in profiles other useful information pulling them from popular mods (eg vbCredits).
2.- Installation
Installation is pretty easy:
Upload all files and directories including at "vbulletin" directory to the directory where vBulletin is installed.
Check at your AdminCP->vBulletin Options->Plugin/Hook System that Plugin system is enabled.
From your AdminCP->Plugin System->Manage Products choose Add/Import Product and import the product: product_memberindex.xml
Set the various options at: Member Index Options. If you can't see the menu on the left, press F5. Don't forget to choose which usergroups to show.
If you want to replace your current member list, you must edit the navbar template to point to memberindex.php instead of memberlist.php Otherwise you can add a seperate menu.
3.- For your info
This is not a Lite version, as I'm not planing to release a Commercial one. But you can find in our site, a Brand Free version for $15, a very fair amount as I believe. I don't like donations, so this is a great way if you want to support my work and to get something back in exchange.
But of course, as I don't have the right to press you to accept my thoughts, if you want I can say you the part of code that you need to change, to show Top Posters from all usergroups.
I do have one question (actually a request) on my site I have a separate usergroup for Site Owners. I would like to display this group above the "Meet our Administrators" block. How would I go about doing this?

Thank you for your supporting words If I understood well, you don't want to replace Admins' block with that one, but rather to build a new block for them. Right? Needs to add a new function in php file and a variable to the template file. Please don't forget that a new block with Featured Members will be add today.
If you don't mind for the space, give me the usergroupid to write you the needing code for your block.
