Well, I'll start things off.
The EpiGuide began in 1999, the first community devoted to original, web-based entertainment, in particular ongoing series / websoaps. We currently consist mostly of creative types who produce these small series and the audience that appreciates this new form of entertainment. Our contributors highlight interesting plotlines & characters, as well as writing behind-the-scenes production help (such as how to write more effectively, webhosting reviews, etc.).
Our vB layout and setup are highly customized, created by me with a great deal of support from the vB experts here and at vb.org. For example:

Our vB layout and setup are highly customized, created by me with a great deal of support from the vB experts here and at vb.org. For example:
- Layout of the forumbits on forumhome; very different from the ordinary. I wanted something much less traditional;
- Completely revamped navbar that uses a different dropdown script altogether;
- Custom statusicons for each forum;
- Sidebar that pulls content from our directory (the wonderful "Links & Downloads Manager" from vb.org's AndrewD), chat room stats, latest threads, etc.;
- User profiles with a heavily tweaked version of MEMBERINFO;
- Rearranged postbit;
- Individually styled user blogs courtesy of the excellent vblogetin;
- Tons more vb.org mods including urnal, FlashChat (thanks to Paul's awesome integration), quizzes, the abovementioned directory (with a highly customized linkbit), vbPlaza, welcome headers, thread prefixes, personalized stickies, and more! All of which have been tweaked a bit to maintain the theme throughout.
