Yes it is extremely useful in tailoring what people see when they come to the Main site home page. Otherwise, on my site anyway, half of what shows at any given time will be over and over: "Hi,welcome to the site!"...and "So-and-so is following so-and-so". Far better to have those valuable slots showing members discussing music and showing new photos and new group members, people talking and sharing fun stuff...real ACTIVITY!

Design and Skin Customization
I like too!
I love the pale green texture you put in the module backgrounds.
Just my own taste, but I personally liked it better without the slightly darker green vertical stripe added down the left side of each module. Seems to make things a little busy, with less 'breathing space'. Also, it takes up valuable horizontal space in each module, so that when your screen gets smaller as on a phone, the text will wrap much sooner because the green stripe asserting its space takes priority over the text. Thus, it may make it harder to see what an event name is, or a song's title, etc.
Are you using site builder? and what skin? I envy how far along you are!

I stick it within my jrForums module here?:
modifying: modules/jrForum/templates/item_index.tpl
Just the single line {jrProfile_disable_sidebar} ....WHERE exactly should I put it in the template code?
And then I assume I should remove Paul's wrap code?
=============
Just so you know- my next step is to add a tab in each regular member's profile page to show their recent forum discussions and/or posts (not group discussions, already have that)...so hoping this new 'forum sidebar disappearing code' will not interfere with that...? John Bizley seems to have this all set up already, the way I am hoping to....but he may be using the site builder and a different skin, I'm not sure.
Hoping you can answer all this for me... thank you!

Using Jamroom
I'll let others answer your forum question, but gotta say here that I'm on the Jamroom server hosting already (as a beta user, though I can't tell it's beta at all)...just seems to be running perfectly for me (and is even faster than my current Ning site)...

Can you tell when I switched from Arvixe shared server to my Jamroom server hosting? hahaha....

JrPolls button to "hide results" and "view results"
Suggestions
I think it'd be a logical and good on/off option in the polls module as well. Seems odd, but the truth is lots of folks like seeing the voting progress and it lends a competitive spirit in certain instances.

p.s. here is the code of Paul's as I applied it...(my "forums" profile ID# is 5124)
{jrCore_module_function function="jrImage_display" module="jrProfile" type="profile_image" item_id=$_profile_id size="xxlarge" class="img_scale img_shadow" alt=$profile_name width=false height=false}

I am still not solving this issue of having my personal profile info and consequently that of my "forums profile" showing up in the sidebar for regular members when they are in my site forums areas. (my forum-owning profile is named "Forums" by the way)
I applied Paul's wrap code above (using my "Forums" profile ID#) and it did not seem to do anything about it.
For example, see this screenshot while I was signed in as a regular member and looking in the site forums....
