Well, I think we should make the New Members forum link to the Official Welcome Yourself thread, and then update that in the message. Other than that thats great! Definatly is going to make new members feel welcomed.
Dyna you arn\'t sending those manually are you, cause I think I saw a good hack that sends welcome messages... check vbulletin.org.
