It can never be said enough, so I'd just like to say how much I appreciate all the work that everyone does to make this board run smoothly. It's a lot of work that you all do (mods, admins, etc), and I thank you! Looking forward to seeing what new goodies will show up with the new version.
Best wishes!

An upgrade and possibly new features? That's very good news. And, I second the notion put forth by Cynthia; I'm proud to be a part of these forums and give a huge "thanks" to the folks who maintain, moderate, and contribute. Good job all!

I feel adding a way of filtering members by state would be a very nice addition.
Which web browser do you think it's geared to and which operating system are you using?

It's probably "optimised" for Internet Explorer, but I know it doesn't work well with Firefox running on Linux. I use Linux on 11 machines at home, I don't have any Windows machines here and probably don't remember how to use it anyway.

Meh. I have a Mac, so I use Safari, and it works.
Everyone should get a Mac.

Mac isn't so... blind user friendly. Apple used to be, but last I heard there wasn't and won't be much cooperation in this area. I could be wrong because I stopped checking up on that.
I did look into the linux based Oralux for a while, but I'm kind of invested deep with what adaptive software I have, and that is for the XP platform... For me, everything is a key command kind of like Linux can be, and that can get confusing when using and switching between the two.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Yea, I'm a VIP (visually impaired person) and my Mac running Tiger and Firefox works a treat.
I think Macs are brill as do most of my extended family. We just like life to be easier

Are you trying to get Riverkilt upset? 
Actually, there is very little you will need to learn. The user profile pages will look a bit different and you will have to click on a tab in the profile to get to the Private Message link, but other than that, you can ignore the other frills as you choose.
The basic forum look and feel will remain the same.

Here is a preview of what the new profile pages will look like. The jury is still out on the visitor messages, but the members of that particular forum are using them quite a bit. After using vBulletin all these years, the user profile is not a page i visit very often, so visitor messages are lost on me. I never see them.
