In stock vBulletin, many memberlist options are displayed in separate columns. With all enabled, (excluding custom fields) this totals 13 columns... far wider than most screen resolutions like. This suite collectively reduces that to 7 intuitive columns without breaking any functionality. :)
With version 1.5.0 is the entire suite, including consolidation of the following:
-IM icons, PM and Email buttons, Homepage button
-Post Count and Search Posts columns (Clicking your postcount will find your posts)
-Birthday and Age columns
-Join Date and Last Visit columns
-And a bonus - Rank Image displayed
The instructions are configured in a way as to allow you to use as much or as little of this hack suite as you like. :)
Many thanks to Oblivion Knight (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/member.php?u=13309) for giving this a look-over and fixing my errors. :)

As an additional- I made a small change to the "contact" phrase- changed it to "Contact Information" Unnecessary but I'm picky about these things :p
Nice idea.. However, a couple of things..
To fix the line break "bug", you could do something like this:
<if condition="($show['emailcol'] OR $show['imicons']) AND exec_switch_bg()"><td class="$bgclass"><div class="smallfont">$userinfo[icqicon] $userinfo[aimicon] $userinfo[msnicon] $userinfo[yahooicon] $userinfo[skypeicon]<if condition="($show['emaillink'] OR $show['pmlink']) AND ($userinfo[icqicon] OR $userinfo[aimicon] OR $userinfo[msnicon] OR $userinfo[yahooicon] OR $userinfo[skypeicon])"><br /></if><if condition="$show['emaillink']"><a href="sendmessage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=mailmember&u=$userinfo[userid]" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/email.gif" alt="email.gif" title="<phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[click_here_to_email_x]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></if> <if condition="$show['pmlink']"><a href="private.php?$session[sessionurl]do=newpm&u=$userinfo[userid]" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/sendpm.gif" alt="sendpm.gif" title="<phrase 1="$userinfo[username]">$vbphrase[send_private_message_to_x]</phrase>" border="0" /></a></if></div></td></if>
Also, you need to edit the memberlist template too. Otherwise the colspan of the table messes up.. This removes the need to edit the setting in the vBulletin options.
Find:
<if condition="$show['imicons']"><td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[instant_messaging]</td></if>Delete it.
Find:
<if condition="$show['emailcol']"><td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[contact]</td></if>Replace it with:
<if condition="$show['emailcol'] OR $show['imicons']"><td class="thead" nowrap="nowrap">$vbphrase[contact]</td></if>Sorted. :)
Thanks for the tips! :) I updated the instructions up top using your instructions... and ended up doing up almost every field in my own memberlist as well... I have 11 fields displayed within 6 columns now, all included with the installation instructions. :)
Will this work on 3.5.5 as well?
I don't see why it wouldn't. There hasn't been a great deal of changes made to the involved templates between 3.5.x and 3.6.x.
The easiest answer is of course- if you can find all of the code you'll need to edit, it works. ;)
good idea

Thanks for the hack! I'll install it right away... :)
