    vb4 has blogs and a CMS for the home page (articles system). The style is a bit different for the forums, but the software is basically the same.

    You can see what the forums look like at http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/

    There's a lot of people posting over there about the software being buggy, so I'm hoping to get our staff putting the software through some testing before we decide to switch after all.

    We decided to delay the upgrade until vBulletin 4 has some key bugs and features fixed. But your graphic help is welcome!

    I believe everything will be the same, just the newest version of vBulletin.

    That doesn't mean we can't change things though, as we see fit, something that works better, etc.

    Yeah, I was mainly saying that all the posts would be transferred over. I believe Denny does a back-up of the site quite frequently.
