Well this thread took a different direction than I anticipated. I shouldn't be surprised.

As for the storage/hosting of user photos is a nice thing to have, but in reality it uses a lot of disk space for that; which in turn raises the monthly operating expenses for the Barn.

As much as we like all of our Barners, we do like to maintain a "barn work" / life balance ourselves. Adding to those complexities adds to the time that the volunteers here have to spend maintaining the back end of the operations.
According to the vBulletin website, the upgrader tool works with vBulletin 3.6.x+ and all versions of vBulletin 4.

However, on another page they mention this: You will be able to upgrade to vB5 directly from versions 3.8.7 or 4.2. For versions earlier than these, you should first upgrade to one of these two versions and then upgrade to 5.0.

This forum is running 3.8.4 so it may require upgrading to 3.8.7 first and then upgrade to version 5.0.

Just curious if you're willing to share (either publicly or via PM), how much is the monthly hosting cost?

I haven't done anything with vBulletin in the past but I have migrated and upgraded another similar forum before that also runs on Linux and PHP so I'd be happy to help if needed.

Hey I didn't think there were any phone apps, but I just found them at the bottom of the page. "Better late than never."

I installed it on my phone, haven't used it yet.

If you upgrade the software, you'll probably make it impossible for people running Netscape Explorer 1.0 to access the site. Just sayin'.

I'm on Windows 3.1 and this site is a bit slow.

I've been thinking of upgrading to Windows 95. Will that help?
