I've been looking around at some of the new features we have since the upgrade. Once we get the hang of the new features it should be lots of fun adding to our friends list, visiting profile pages, leaving visitor messages and starting some social groups. Feel free to join in on this thread if you're familiar with these new features. We can all use the help!

Here's some of the new features we have;

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

User Picture Galleries
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.

Public Messaging
Public messaging system, allows users to communicate publicly via their profile pages.

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.

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.

Wow interesting more toys to play with, thank you

I think I may be fixing to be confused! hahahaha!

Thanks for sharing the upgrade changes for our members, Karen.

Can't wait to try them out.
