Yellow box is back...
Pager icon at left of posts is back... link in profiles will return when the user profile page is fixed.
Pager text area is bigger too to stop you pager-whores from having to scroll so much

Yeah, think it would be better to keep it private instead of public. Or should give you the option of choosing to allow anyone to see it / contacts(friends) / just you.
That would probably be the best option

If its to be private use the PM system.
If its public use the forums or the profile messages.
If you want it to be off the forum and only for select members.. then create a social group and invite your friends to join it. Then only people within 'your' group can leave messages...
Within your userCP (edit option) you can set it so only people within your contacts (buddy's/friends) can leave messages on your prfile screen.
"Limit usage of Visitor Messages to Contacts and Moderators"
Premium Memebrs can create their own social groups.... treat this like a circle of friends.. so you may have regional group , or people who have "1.5D saxos', or "stripped out racers" groups, etc, etc.
You need to play with it to understand it... so far, im the only person to create a social group.

Very true.
Seems like a good update from what i've seen of it so far
Need to update the banner to v3.7, as someone already mentioned though... guessing it will only be a minute or two job if you still have PSD file?

I guess it's just time to get used to it and get to see how it works, as for a general thing with the messages via asking questions or what not, could that not just be posted as a thread?
I'm sure it will come in handy somewhere along the line lol.

What's the change with the list of Reputation Received, Simo?
Some reps are now marked with "N/A" where the thread title would have been, and I'm positive some rep has appeared which wasn't there before the update - one of them is dated April 08, so hasn't just been left recently.
