The default set-up for vBulletin is that all the avatars, profile pics, attachments and thumbnails are stored in the SQL database for the forum. Even though that method has some advantages, the disadvantages outweigh them.
I pulled the board offline for a short time tonight and I reconfigured the board and moved all the avatars, profile pics, attachments and thumbnails out of the database and into the file system of the server.
Supposedly the files all moved without any reported errors during the process. I just did a quick look at everything and all seems to be working ok. If anybody spots anything weird, let me know.
