Before I criticize at all, I love the direction the forums are beginning to take. : )

Alright, so.

1) The message table is extended beyond the posting table width. this is a simple fix by redefining the width of the table in the Main Style Options of the Admin CP, or by simply reducing the number of smilies shown in the click-quick area to those that are of typical smilie size.

2) The copyright information. Is the double up of MacNN intentional? And as a sidenote, you may cut the vBulletin copyright down to just this (of course this is all easily editable within the footer template):
vBulletin, Copyright ©2000 - 2005, Jelsoft Enterprises Limited.

Reference (vBulletin staff): http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showp...mp;postcount=8

Additionally, the "Powered by vBulletin" on the forumhome page can be removed. Simply by editing the forumhome template and removing the vBphrase from the title tag.

Again, Reference (vBulletin staff): http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showp...mp;postcount=4

3) There is no step three? *shrug*
Here's to the crazy ones..

Good points. However:

1. The table width is impossible to adjust due to the size of the message table. If you'll noticed it's quite extended. They might be able to change the main style options of the admin account, but they could also reduce the smiley count to help out.

2. The copyright is legal tender, which means it cannot be copied or modified without legal permission. I'd seriously consider asking an admin before posting something like that again.

Regards,

.. As referenced in the links in my post, the vBulletin staff has made it widely known that they legally will accept those modifications I mentioned.

And I was simply asking whether the inclusion the MacNN copyright twice was intentional or not.

As to the message table, they surely can adjust its width within the Main Style Options or StyleVars section of the AdminCP. And as I said previously, it could also most likely be fixed by removing the larger smilies from the quick link smilie box.
