With social networking - I'd like to update our profile area, embed sharing tools, TAGS, geo-mapping (reading IPTC tags, etc).
With
SEO - sitemaps and a revisit of the RSS feeds.
With designs - I'm still working on how it might look, again, trying to please everyone but needing to achieve some balance. I'd like to add even more AJAX and I like the highslide.com javascript slideshows. On the main index page - we have the two formats - gallery and forum listing, maybe the gallery layout - do we need a third? Maybe. But, again, the more templates we build the harder it is to standardize them.
I would love to be able to start over with just one template design, but vB3 and vB4 support make that nearly impossible. The number of variations we allow through switches make this a daunting task.
