You could install this hack which is a bug tracker that looks like this.
Suggestion: Bug Tracker
The icons work just fine for the time being. I'm not bashing the idea or anything. It's just, though, hacks arent being installed until vBulletin 3 goes final. Plus, if we ever need to update, the hacks might be lost, but the icons would stay.
Remember what happened with the old bug hack, when it wasnt working? A vigilante attitude had to be taken with the bug forums.
Im not entirely against the idea if it can be updated easily, though. I just prefer simplicity.
