We are now running vBulletin 3.5 on our forum. If you have any questions or are experiencing any problems with the new software please post them here. Below is a list of just a few of the new features you'll want to check out.
[SIZE=+0]Database-based thread and forum read marking
No matter how many times you visit the forum, only the threads you've seen will be marked read.

[/SIZE][SIZE=+0]Thread title editing on forumdisplay via AJAX [/SIZE]
[SIZE=+0]This will make it quick and on the fly for you to modify your thread titles.

Completely rewritten message editor with ability to instantly switch between standard and WYSIWYG modes
You will use this each time you post.

Super-Quick Reply on showthread via AJAX
Just like the improved wysiwyg editor, now you don't even have to reload a page to keep posting. You will love this.

Inline post edit on showthread via AJAX
And to top that, clicking on edit will now not reload the page, but simply make the post editable.

Username suggestion for PM recipients and search by user via AJAX
Not always do you know how to spell a friends names, now you dont have to. vBulletin does it for you.

MySQL Full Text Search
A revamped search engine.

Custom avatar resizing
No more annoyances with invalid sizes, etc. vBulletin will just do it for you.

New bbcode parser now corrects invalid tag nesting to ensure valid HTML
Better post results, less hassle.

Spell Checker for Internet Explorer
You can use a spell checker if running Internet Explorer. You'll need to install
ieSpell in order to use this feature. Support for other browsers will be implemented by vBulletin as soon as tools with sufficient web-integration systems become available.

And of course, numerous bugs and annoyances resolved.
Better browser support, and things like that.

I will also be adding some additional new features in the days and weeks to come. Look for more details in our announcements forum.

Hey Beau, nice avatar! It resizes, you say? YAY!!!

EDIT: Yes it does! And now my Read-Alee-Deed-Alee avatar fits!

But it doesnt accept .tiff filez. Dang. And that IESPELL only works for Windows. Double Dang. Well, I'll wait for the other browsers..( since I primarily use FireFox)
