Could you also use HTML within the forum description itself? This could be done with any forum package, I'm sure...

Okay, I'm curious about this one too. According the vbb documentation, you need to create a new template to handle the sub forums (forumhome_forumbit_levelX_post/nopost) ... so how would you get the contents of this template to show up within the description of the parent forum?

All that is done here at SitePoint (I think, you'll have to check with Wayne to be sure) is that the titles have been put as HTML into the forum descriptions.
mahke: yes this could be done with any forum system.

hmmmmm...its a great layout, I wonder if its possible to hack it so that the template is assigned to a variable, and can be outputted within the template for the parent forum? That way you could get it to automatically update.
