Zetaboards is a lot like this. The only reason that looks so clean is because that board only has two forums.
They are working on it. Different software. Plus, they probably have to retool them to work with the format that IBP 3 has. I'm sure we can all see that just putting in the old skin won't work. It'll need to be fixed to work seamlessly with the new software.
Or they'll have to make new skins. We'll see.
