Here is a list of a few suggestions and things i would like to see... I am sure some of them are already built in and i just don't know it yet :)
1. With the preview instead of extra buttons i would like just submit and clear then you could have a check box like 'preview this message before posting it'
2. When private messages are added i would like a way to give the user notification, like if they have new messages a flashing piece of mail on what ever page they are on or something...
3. A tool to edit user information from the control panel, in ubb since it's flat file you can just edit the data file but with MySQL you need a utility that lets you view all of a users information(admin only) and edit it... I am sure this could be done in a external hack also
4. A sort of basic API or a way to externally access information on non vb page through your site... stuff like total users, if they have new private messages, number of new messages since last visit, polls, newest member, active topics, etc.
5. The ability for sub category forums... for example if you have a general message board with a art forum... they could post in that general forum of up at the top of the forum listings you could list sub-forums like drawing, animation... The listing could sort of be like the announcements listing..

P.S. When do you plan to have the demo admin interface online?
