1) Can I allow different file types in avatars? If so, where?
2) Is it possible to have a new thread automatically copied to a different forum as soon as it is posted? If so, where are the settings for this.
Thanks in advance.

what kind of file types? You should already be able to use all the different types of image files.
And it is possible to have a thread automatically copied to a different forum. As soon as it's posted? You should be able to get a script written for that, but why would you want to do that for anything not spam related?

example would be yoyorast Island 2 news. They have their own forum for the news stuff but if they wanted to post it somewhere else. That second idea would be a great help.

I need the thread to copy to a new forum as soon as it's posted for clan recruiting purposes. For instance:
1) Recruit posts his application in the "Clan Recruitment" forum (public forum).
2) Thread is automatically copied to the "Applicant Discussion" sub-forum (private, clan member only forum).
3) Members can now discuss information on the recruit privately while still having the public post open for any questions they might want to ask the recruit.
I'd like to somehow allow the ".php" file extension for avatars, but I don't think it will work because of the way vBulletin "downloads" and caches the avatar images that are linked/uploaded.

Moderation abilities include copying a thread, so the functionality is there.

Yea I know that, I just need an automated mod. Preferably something with an Admin CP module that manages its settings and such. I've searched on vbulletin.com and vbulletin.org and turned up nothing...
Also, the website in question (http://lancersedge.exofire.net/clan) totally doesn't rip off the Modacity layout in any way.

Yeah, not like it's hard to use vBadvanced and rip off any other vBadvanced site. My best guess then would be to post asking how to write such a mod yourself or see if anyone is willing to do it.

Well, I found a similar mod on vBulletin.org and I believe it's the one used here, except you guys modded it a little bit.
