"About 50% of the top of the screen is just logo and info" - not on my browser it ain't. Sorry, can't agree there. Are you using some old browser on a small display?
Looking at other vBulletin-powered sites and the style does appear to be highly customisable, and there are some very compact page designs which I've found preferable. Many use full screen width, little or no framing / bordering and smaller intro page icons.Genuine suggestion - change the posters details (name, join date etc) from a row above the post to a column beside the post - there are plenty of other vBulletin forums that do this...
I agree its definitely in the right direction, smaller icons, much more compact, although viewed at 800x600 it stretches too far to the right, goes off screen - Shows just how difficult it is to get a forum that everyone is happy with.
No way, some of us find it easier and quicker to draw ASCII Art circuits than use a Schematic Editor, and they are entirely portable into source code, which is where they usually come from anyway - why do everything twice.Now that images can be posted, is this the end of ASCII art schematics?. There are some real artists here.
