Looking good, Matt!
Couple of suggestions...
- There are way too many fields in the mini-profile next to posts. In particular the real name and YouTube fields (the latter, by the way, is a duplicate of a builtin field now) could stand to go.
- Would it be possible to raise the character limit on signatures? The current limit of 200 seems a little skimpy, and makes it difficult to include links.
Thanks and keep up the excellent work!

Yeah, I would have to agree on the mini profile thing. That is way too junked up in my opinion. Otherwise, everything else is looking good!

It just needs to be spaced downward a line for each field and "YouTube Username: " can be changed to "YouTube".

I didn't even notice that till I made my first post in this thread after the upgrade.

I love the notifications tab, I have already posted more today then I do in a month...is that bad? Granted that could be I am having direct conversations.
I personally like the mini profile, that way you can tell who they are and where if their names change from place to place.

I like how you can tell who's online and who's not.

I also noticed this:

I am a big fan of it being able to see my notifications without looking at the top. But I don't think it refreshes on its own.

What I meant to say was that you can view a user's online status without having to go to their profile page. Sorry for the confusion. Nonetheless, great new board update, Matt.
