Important! New Features Of The Forum

[Stryker]

1. Contacts & Friends
Reciprocal Friendships Between Users

As part of our new social networking system, users can now request that people on their buddy list confirm their friendship, after which time a person's list of confirmed friends will be viewable to other users.

2. Social Groups
User-Created Social Groups

To further social cohesion between users and to encourage people to make friends, vBulletin now includes a facility to allow users to create their own social/interest groups.



These groups are enhanced by having their own public messaging system, and the ability to add pictures to the group from user albums.

3. Pictures & Albums
User Picture Galleries



vBulletin users can now create albums and upload pictures to their account.



The ability to view these albums and pictures can be limited by the user to just board staff and people on their buddy list if they want privacy.



4. Public Messaging

While private messages between users have been in vBulletin since version 2.0, vBulletin 3.7 introduces the public messaging system, allowing users to communicate publicly via their profile pages.



5. New Member Profile Page

In order to accomodate all the new features in vBulletin 3.7, the member profile page has been completely redesigned from the ground up.

The new page presents information in a far cleaner and more logical manner, while dividing up information into manageable chunks using a tabbed interface.

Individual profile field categories can be displayed alone in blocks in the right column, in addition to appearing by default in the 'About Me' tab.



6. Member Customization of Profile Page

The administrator may choose to allow his members to use the profile page customization tool, which allows users to alter fonts, colors, background and borders etc. of their profile page in order to create a more personalized look.

The administrator can lock-down customization permissions, in order to prevent the personalized pages being made too offensively awful by aesthetically challenged members... nobody wants to see some of those really ugly MySpace pages on your vBulletin installation!

7. Thread Prefixes

Thread prefixes are divided into groups by the administrator, allowing different prefixes to be available in different forums.



Note: Now work in Tech Support & Suggestions only

I had a suggestion. I think there should be a tutorial section for zbrush. I personally do not have any to submit but i know there are a lot out there, and zbrush is rising super fast in the 3d community/industry.

just a suggestion though. I thought it might help some people.

[Stryker]

Ok no problem, I will open this section. Thanks!

By the way, what is 'credits' for?
