How do you feel about the new postbit?

(miscellaneous info)
(IM icons, acting as a spacer between the two text sections)
(logistical info)
(trade rep link, just below LGG)

Trade rep is also semi-experimental. It's a link to any LG thread at admin discretion (so the user cannot remove it). There's potential for what all can be displayed on a user's postbit. Hopefully it will work great in this situation, but I'm hoping to find more uses for admins publicly tacking information to a user's postbit.

Could probably do badges and awards without even using a plugin.

feedback plz

I'm not seein the new postbit, sorry. I still see the old one. Sounds like a pretty good thing I guess though, can you provide a screenshot?

It's only in the LG theme.

IM things should be on top of the extra info. Other than that looks good.

That's where I had them at one point, but I didn't want them too close to the avatar so as to prevent them from being clicked when the member actually meant to click the avatar to view the user's profile (which will happen probably way more likely than the user actually wanting to click the IM icon).

I'm not sure I like it breaking up the member info block. But I see what you mean by being too close to the avatar. You could insert a line break between them to help solve the problem.

The IM icons don't look too well at their current location

I dont see how you could click it by accident... but if you say so.

You know what, of all the years I've been using vBulletin. I never noticed clicking a user's avatar takes you to their profile. How on earth did I miss that?

The break in between the Join date and posts looks odd. Not too be naggy, but I'm just saying :)

It's a separation between text-based/miscellaneous user data (age, location, join date) and numerical/logistic user data (post count, rep, LGG).

Okay, I understand now
