Anyway, here are your requests:

Forums arranged in columns on forumhome
As requested several times, this hack allows you to arrange forums on forumhome in xx columns instead of just one per row as it is in standart vb3. It is a plain port of my 3.0 version you can find
here.
Look at the screenshot to know what i mean
The design is changeable in the templates of course
I've tested it, and it should work, but as i don't use it myself, i cannot do a longtime test, so if you find any bugs, report them
Right now, it's just working on forumhome.
I'll add changes for forumdisplay later

Simple Category Icons
For all of you who want Category Icons including the "new post", "no new post", "forum closed" capabilities, here is a quick and simple solution provided by Andreas
What this hack does: Instead of the standard forum icons like
or ... you can now have separat status icons for every forum you have. It is that simple
Templates
forumhome_forumbit_level_...
search:
Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" />
Replace with
Code:
<img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum$forum[forumid]_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" />
then create/name your images like this:
forumID_new.gif, forumID_old.gif,...
Example: forum1_new.gif
If you want to have different icons for subforums on forumhome as well:
In
forumhome_subforumbit_nopost and
forumhome_subforumbit_post
search for:
Code:
<img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/subforum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
and replace it with:
Code:
<img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/subforum$forum[forumid]_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" id="forum_statusicon_$forum[forumid]" />
Name your images like:
subforumID_old.gif
subforumID_new.gif
Example: subforum22_old.gif

Thread Preview only on Thread Title Hover
What does this do?
Normally the Thread Preview will show if you hover anywhere in the cell containing the Thread Title. This will make it so you have to hover on the Thread Title itself to see the Thread Preview.
Instructions:
Find in your Threadbit template:
Code:
id="thread_title_$thread[realthreadid]"
Add before:
Find in Threadbit template:
Code:
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_$thread[realthreadid]" title="$thread[preview]">
Replace with:
Code:
<td class="alt1" id="td_threadtitle_$thread[realthreadid]">
Notes:
A few people have had some trouble understanding what exactly this modification does. In light of this, I've attached a screenshots which (hopefully) explains a little better.

Signature only on first post
This will cause each user's signature to be shown only on their first post on each page vs. on every post during a thread listing.
Originally Posted by

In the postbit or postbit_legacy template,
Find :
Code:
<if condition="$post['signature']">
And replace it with this one:
Code:
<if condition="$post['signature'] AND !$vboptions['shownsigs'][$post[userid]] AND $vboptions['shownsigs'][$post[userid]] = true">
Filename: only 1 sig.txt

Custom Colored Usergroup Legend
This works with any version of vBulletin. I am sure this is just another version of many other similar mods, but I thought I would share it any way.
What does this hack do?
This hack provides a colored usergroup legend in the What's Going On box...
See screen shots for more info.
Example:
Legend:
~Administrator~ -
~Super Mod~ -
~Moderator~ -
~Premium~ -
~Plasma Team~ -
~Retired Staff~ -
~Banned~
Live Demo:
Code:
http://transversegfx.com/forums/
Install:
Go to FORUMHOME Template
(Style Manager>Style you want to edit>Drop Down Menu>Edit Templates>Forum Home (double click)>FORUMHOME
Find:
Code:
<div>$activeusers</div>
</div>
Add After:
Code:
<div>
<br />
<b> Legend: <font color=red>~Administrator~</font> - <font color=blue> ~Super Mod~</font> - <font color=blue>~Moderator~</font> - <font color=lime>~Premium~</font> - <font color=cyan>~Plasma Team~</font> - <font color=grey>~Retired Staff~</font></b> - <s><font color=black>~Banned~</font></s>
</div>
Edit the colored text with what ever color you want....
YOUR DONE!
Congrats!
(you will have to add any additional groups you want)

Configuration Notes:
We've coded this version so that you can controll the images that displays. Entering an url to an image in the text box will cause the default image to disapeare and the new one you entered to take its place. Also, make sure you've got "Show image" set to yes. Global displayment is now do-able, by setting the displayment point above or below the navbar. It will then Display globally on your forum. Colors are changable, but must be in ASCII code for instance white = #FFFFFFF . Same goes for the text font. If you use a custom image,
remember to enter the image width in the text area that follows, otherwise the whole allignement will be messed up.
Included Files:
- Admin End Screenshot
- User End Screenshot
- Read me
- 5 images
- XML Product file
Planned Updates:
- Hide Announcements from guest and show a "please register" message instead (Going to be enhanced allot)
- Better Admin Panel Layout?
- Show certain Announcements to certain Usergroups
- Show certain Announcements to certain Users
- Whatever you guys suggest
Final Notes:
This modification was built from the ground up and was enhanced as we went on with the production of it. None of the codes here were leeched of the other modifications out there that are available to do the same basic function. This is
not an updated version on any of those and must not be considered as one. It is a mod on its own.
