Thanks for your quick response.

So the photopost and vbulletin databases remain separate right? They don't need to be merged together or anything?

Should I move photopost to the new server, then try and upgrade to v5 photopost? Or upgrade first, then try and move to the new server?

I am not very concerned with preserving the photopost user names. What if I want to just have the vbulletin user base "take over" and "throw away" all the photopost user data. Old content (photos/videos) would then sort of be archived and users would 'start over' with their new accounts which were brought over from vbulletin (most usernames dont match anyway). Basically so that photopost latches onto vbulletin and its current userbase. Current vBulletin users would already have their login information. Anyone not currently registered with vbulletin would have to. Or is there no way to do this?

And one more question on a related note, if I wanted to bring reviewpost and photopost classifieds "into the mix" would that be something I want to adress now and do it all at once? Or do I want to get the integration running first and then add those products in?
