** Upgrade Info ** As I'm sure y'all have well noticed, I am in the process of updating us (finally) to vBulletin 3.6.8, from 3.0.7 ... This is a pretty HUGE upgrade, and as such a few things I still have to update, install, tweak, etc.
With an update this big, some somewhat undesirable things were necessary. Probably the most obvious is your template/skin may not be what it was set to, and even then when you do pick your favorite it may not look exactly the same. There were something like 63 template changes between the versions, so obviously things will either look/work differently because of code changes, or things still need to be tweaked.
Anyway -- I'm going to keep hammering on it, try to get as much done before the morning rush
Good morning everyone!
Oh PS... Please report ONCE if you see something missing/broken/etc.
Known items:
- Skins looks slightly different, they'll be tweaked as we go.
- Trader ratings are missing, they'll be upgraded as well.
- Timeslip database is gone, we'll be upgrading that too.
- Search is wonky, but is a big part of the upgrade.
- PerformanceTrucks.net, ModernHemi.com, and ModMotorTech.com are still in maintenance mode. I'm working on those now.

I like the old icons too -- the "dot" functionality is there, they just created new icons for 'em (it's now an arrow). Maybe we can find a cool new set even, who knows
Good stuff!! Old icons were nicer, but it's not a big deal. Lovin' the AJAX!

I like it - running quick and lookin' good. The stickies don't stand out enough, and the little white arrows can be hard to see. We will cut you some slack as you continue to work out the details.
