Hi, I'm strongly leaning towards purchasing VB, but I need to know if I can do a particular thing with it.

If you look at the top of my site at http://slushfactory.com/nslush/ you'll see that I have a Login section at the top of the page (allows them to enter Username and Password to login).

My question is this: with VB can I have it where after they login the login box at the top will be replaced with a new box that would say "Welcome [username]," or "Logged in as: [username]" and also have a "logout" button. How hard would this be to set up?

Having this option would be fairly important, or else there's no use to having the login box at the top if it wouldn't change after the person logged in.

I eagerly await a response. Thank you in advance.

There is actually a hack on vbulletin.org that does this, and a lot of people use this hack, Just do a search on vbulletin.org for it :).
