I've recently completed a complete redesign of
Legends of Tacendia, including
the forums using tablewrappers and everything threads offers in customizability.
I had to modify how many tablewrappers were being used though, threads seems to be rather heavy on $tbopen's and $tbclose's.
You can find all of my mods installed there, plus a few others like quick-reply, as well as about a million other in-house mods for online collaboration use and game database integration.. when our game starts public testing people will be able to login with their game account and post with their actual character name.
Anyhoo, that's what I've been doing!
