I was wondering if you guys would like to upgrade to Invisionplus/Invisionproboards. They have more features, look more professional, and ahave more options in terms of staff. Let me know f you'd like to see this. Thanks. -Confusingkid.

Yep Anything along those lines sounds good, although it's a shame to see this skin go to waste... IPB is gonna cost ya though.

It's still not "good" but better than proboards, and yes, its a shame on the skin. I'm currently looking into the best forum hosters that dont require ftp/php/mysql Because I'm a n00b when it comes to that stuff.

You're looking for ones that DON'T[/u] provide FTP/PHP/MySQL?? Think it's best if you find one that offers all of them Try to find an ad-free, free hoster that offers 300MB+ Space, 3Gig+ Traffic, supports all major filetypes, MySQL databases for forums is always a necessity. If you are using IPBFree, you don't need a forum hoster, just go to: ipbfree.comThey offer free forum hosting upon sign-up (which is free!) So you don't need to upload any files. Whereas my vBulletin files are all on my Mac, and I've uploaded them to a webhost which offers MySQL...which is needed for vBulletin. If you're using a free forum software, chances are there will be free forum hosting on the site you sign-up with ... ie, they'll automatically setup your forum for you. Unfortunately with vBulletin they don't offer that. And I have to find my own hosts. Uploading files/hacks etc is a pain, the web-based forum software (like IPB/IPBFree/Invision) is much easier to do things like that, but you get a lot less freedom, and a lot more adverts Look out for ads![/u]

I used to use free IBP but then switched to free PHPBB3. It looks really nice and works really well for being free. forum.fortcomanche.net <-- my userless forum xD
