Default RivaCity.com --- A Richmond, VA virtual community

I just went live with this yesterday and would love to have some feedback from people who know vbulletin. There are some things I'd like to do style-wise but it works for now. I'd like to hear more about what you guys think of the funcionality (if that's a word) and organization of the site. The addy is www.rivacity.com

Where is Rivacity located? Because it shows Central time for guests.

If the name is correct, RivaCity is a combination of Richmond and VA (Ri and Va). With that, Richmond, VA is on the east cost (GMT -5).

They must have their server in central time then, or they haven't set the DST settings right.

Doh! Are we in daylights savings time now?

Edit: Ok it's fixed. I didn't enable DST. Besides me not knowing how to set my time right, what did you think?

Not too bad. It seems to flow pretty nice from what I saw. I do like your weather box. How did you set that up?

looks good, default style with custom header, and it just sets it off nicely.

@ Boofo: Via a feed from another site probably.

There's Weather Channel RSS module somewhere on this site and it had to be changed a bit to display a default zip. It was fairly easy though. I'll try and dig it up.

My bad I thought I was posting on vbadvanced. here's the link to the module... http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/show...Weather+module

Thank you, sir. I don't use vBAdvanced but I will add this to the site somehow (with Kerry-Anne's help, I'm sure.)
