    Thumbs up Welcome to vBulletin 4!

    We have now finally moved over to vBulletin 4.0, here some things that have changed.

    1) vbExperience:
    vbExperience is currently not supported on vBulletin 4 so we are using a new points and shop system. The points system is called uCash and the shop is called Points Market (lol).
    You get "cash" everytime you do something on the forums (i.e. make a post,thread,etc..) and you can redeem it for cool stuff on in the shop, which ranges from Custom User Titles and Glowing Usernames to Stealing cash from others and buying Protection for your own cash.
    Depeding on how well this system does, we may not have to go back to vbExperience once (if) it is upgraded to work with 4.0

    2) iTrader:
    The link for iTrader can be found under Forums->Community->iTrader or you can click the link from any users post. All your old iTrader scores and comments have been preserved through the move.
    Users posts now display how many reviews they have gotten as well as their overall percent.

    3) Image resizer:
    The old one we used to use is not currently supported but we do have a similar one. Images now just appear smaller (They no longer have that "This image's size is reduced" message) until you click on them, they then expand to their original size. If there is more than one image in a post, you only have to click on one image, when it expands you can click on the left side of it to go to a previous image or on the right to go to the next image in line. To exit you can click anywhere where the image isnt showing, or you can click the "Close" button in the lower right hand corner.

    4) Donations:
    The donations page has changed slightly, You now enter in an amount (in USD) and then proceed to PayPal to log into your account and donate. Subscriptions still occur in the same way.
    Note: Donations and Subscriptions are different.

    5) Chatbox:
    Our old chatbox has not been updated yet (They are in the process though) so until then we are using a very similar one. The chatbox is currently only displayed on the home page to reduce server load. With this new chatbox to pm someone just click on their name in the chatbox. To go back to the main chat click on "Shoutbox" next to "Active Users". To see who is on click on "Active users".

    6) Thank You System:
    The thank you system is still the same and all your old thanks have been preserved. The only change is where the Thanks button is located. Instead of being in the lower right hand corner of a post, it is now in the lower left corner of a post.

    7) Top 15(10) Stats:
    As you might have seen on the front page, the Top 15 Stats has changed dramatically and is now Top 10 Stats. You can choose to see what you want from a couple different choices, and it should get saved for the next time you visit.

    8) Referral Link:
    Your referral link is still in your UserCP.

    9) UserCP:
    UserCP is now called Settings and can be found and the top right corner of the forums or under Forums->Forum Actions->Forum Settings in the navigation bar

    10) Anonymizer:
    The Link Anonymizer we used still works. It gives you some errors when browsing through it, but it still redirects you, We are in the process of fixing it.

    11) Styles:
    Unfortunately none of our old styles work, so we have 5(4) new ones. If you browse to the very bottom of the forums you will see 2 selection boxes on the left hand side. Select the one most to the left and pick from any of those. There's black,red,green,blue,and default.
    I you see "(Fixed)" near the style it means that the forum is centered and limited in width. If you select a style that says "(Fluid)" it means that it will be as wide as your browser is.


    Have any Questions, Likes, Dislikes, Suggestions? Please post them here, we are more than happy to hear any sort of input.

    A Forum post should be like a skirt, Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting"
