Hang on. There's two things afrowall.com has.

One is the Tidy Child Boards mod (which I originally wrote, and by putting the question mark there I hoped you'd have the idea to try searching the mod site for it) the other is the Advanced Recent Posts mod. Since you said not the recent posts bit, I assumed logically you meant the boards arrangement.

If that's the effect you want... YES.

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2294 is the mod.

You can get the custom code for your version of SMF from that page, and if you like you can install it by hand but I assure you a mod is quicker, especially on 2.0.
