    vBulletin 3.0 THUMBS DOWN

    They really messed up this new version.

    Still BETA, but they made it so feature heavy and changed the administration of it so much that the damn thing is practically unusable.

    hundreds of fricking options yet you still have to hunt down every page option if you want to change the damn BODY tag. A basic fricking tag and they messed it up in the most confusing way possible.

    Tell me if I'm wrong but shouldn't a fundamental rule of template design be simplicity?

    I cannot fathom why they would disable the ability to call any java-scripts from any body tags.

    Sorry folks, this release is totally BLOATWARE and CRAP.

    I hope they improved the search feature in 3.0.

      BODY is global, at least is in 2.3.0 - Styles>Modify>fonts/colors/etc

      has this changed in the 3 beta?

        I always hated 3.0

        I still use the old version 2.3, or something.

            3 is beta... wouldn't touch it with a 10 meter cattleprod...

            2.3.0 is the one you should be using.

              Completely agree - the admin is a shocker...

                  its not so bad

                  there better support for image attachments and theres the option to create a google friendly archive.

                  but yeah the admin is another story
                  SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                    The body tag is not global in the latest beta anymore.
