vB 4.0.1 Fix
Those of you who performed this mod on 4.0.0 and have upgraded to 4.0.1, all you have to do is revert the header template and perform the edits again. For some reason when the templates were merged with the new code it messed up the links when logged in.
-----------------------------------------------------

Open header template

Find:

PHP Code:

<input type="text" class="textbox default-value" name="vb_login_username" id="navbar_username" size="10" accesskey="u" tabindex="101" value="<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>" onfocus="if (this.value == '<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>'){this.value=''; this.style.color='black';}" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value='<vb:if condition="$username">{vb:raw username}<vb:else />{vb:rawphrase username}</vb:if>'; this.style.color='#828282';}"/>
                    <input type="password" class="textbox default-value" name="vb_login_password" id="navbar_password" size="10" tabindex="102" onfocus="this.style.color='black';" />
                    <input type="submit" class="loginbutton" value="{vb:rawphrase log_in}" tabindex="104" title="{vb:rawphrase enter_username_to_login_or_register}" accesskey="s" />
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </fieldset>
                <div id="remember" class="remember">
                    <label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar"><input type="checkbox" name="cookieuser" value="1" tabindex="103" id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" class="cb_cookieuser_navbar" accesskey="c" /> {vb:rawphrase remember_me}</label>
                </div>
            
                <input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
            </form>    
        </vb:if>
    </div> 

Replace With:

PHP Code:

<style type="text/css">
.toplinks form img {
        position:relative;  
        top: 3px;        
} 
</style>

<img src="./images/icons/username.png" alt="Username" />

                    

<input id="navbar_username" class="bginput" type="text" onblur="if (this.value == '') this.value = 'Username';" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Username') this.value = '';" value="Username" tabindex="101" accesskey="u" size="10" name="vb_login_username" style="font-size: 11px;"/>

<img src="./images/icons/password.png" alt="Password" />

                    <input id="navbar_password" class="bginput" type="password" onblur="if (this.value == '') this.value = '';" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Password') this.value = '';" value="Password" tabindex="102" accesskey="u" size="10" name="vb_login_password" style="font-size: 11px;/>


                    

<label for="cb_cookieuser_navbar">
<input id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" type="checkbox" accesskey="c" tabindex="103" value="1" name="cookieuser"/>
</label>
                

                    <input type="submit" class="loginbutton" value="Login" tabindex="104" title="{vb:rawphrase enter_username_to_login_or_register}" accesskey="s" />
                        </div>
                    </div>
                </fieldset>


                
            
                <input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />


                <input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
                <input type="hidden" name="do" value="login" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password" />
                <input type="hidden" name="vb_login_md5password_utf" />
            </form>    
        </vb:if>
    </div> 

Save your changes

<input id="cb_cookieuser_navbar" type="checkbox" accesskey="c" tabindex="103" value="1" name="cookieuser"/>

Very nice forum color scheme. May I make a suggestion?

Go into your templates, open up vbulletin-chrome.css

Do a search for .toplinks form input.loginbutton

and change the attributes to read the following

PHP Code:

.toplinks form input.loginbutton {
    font-size: {vb:math {vb:stylevar font.fontSize}-2}px;
    padding: 0 {vb:math {vb:stylevar padding}/2};
    background-color:  #186400;
    border:solid 1px #ffffff;
        color: #ffffff;
} 

And your login area will be perfect (I matched the green for the background color)
