Yes, we just upgraded software.
Here is the rundown (might be worth making an announcement with this in it )

Welcome to the new version of Zdriver. This thread will give you an overview of the robust new features of vBulletin® Version 3.7.3. Please check out the FAQ by Clicking HERE.
An Inside Look at the New Features
Picture Galleries [click]
vBulletin users can now create albums and upload pictures to their account. Zdriver allows each member to upload up to 100 pictures in their album. Maximum file size per Picture is 292 KB and maximum Picture Dimensions is 800 by 600 Pixels. If you try to upload pics larger then the maximum sizes, your pics will be automatically resized. For better quality, it is best you resize yourself, THEN upload.
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.
User-Created Social Groups [click]
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. You can access the various Social Groups by clicking on your account, and then clicking on "social groups."
These groups are enhanced by having their own public messaging system, and the ability to add pictures to the group from user albums.
Member New Profile Page [click]
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.
Attachment Viewing Lightbox
Clicking on an attached image will now open a lightbox rather than open a new window, with the image scaled to fit the browser viewport. A click on the image in the lightbox will open it in a new window as before.
Your Control Panel [click]
Click on 'your account' to access your control panel. This section allows you to manipulate various features such as;

Sounds great!
One thing needing immediate attention is the Homepage, which is now blank. It usually has the most recent 7-8 threads, calender, who's online, & forum announcements.
There's also a lot of forum plug-ins that might liven up our activity, such as video hosting (kind of like youtube / streetfire), a casino, arcade, etc. But that is up to the IB Admins.
