DNF$: 0 Location: Europe | Why vBulletin? I was just wondering why DNForum uses vBulletin....? Why not phpBB, IkonBoard, Snitz or some other (free) forum. I'm thinking of starting my own (Dutch) Forum somewhere and was wondering what software to use. Tino

DNF$: 138 Location: Cali | Also an excellent free message forum software is Invision Board. http://www.invisionboard.com/ vBulletin overall has the most administrative options, and a thiving community of hacks and add-ons available. |

DNF$: 0 Location: Europe | Yeah, I've PM'd him. But it a leased license. Normal price; $85/yr. Since it's valid to december, the "normal" price would be (85/12)*8.5 = $60. Not really a steal. ![]() Ã'll try the other boards, and then think of purchasing an owned license. TIno
