I need some votes about the forum of Slaveino Studios. The current one is here:
http://www.slaveinostudios.com/forum
And the new is here:
http://slaveinostudios.com/newb
Which is better?
the second one, because loads of forums look like the first one. How do you make forums???
lol you can just download em jimi :)
http://www.phpbb.com
or the forums used by ags:
http://www.yabbse.org
some programming knowledge is required for advanced changes, but you can just change the colors and pictures and shit - pretty cool, but making your own is a bit difficult :)
I agree with Jimi. The second one is better. Except on the first page it said that there was one reply, when there was actually none when i went in the forum.

QuoteHow do you make forums???
With PHP mostly. I've written one for our website. It's a bit crappy, but our team has started working on the new version. If you want to check it out (original) go here (http://koti.mbnet.fi/dima/Forumz). The posts are all in Finnish, but we could of course create an international forum there if someone's interested. And here's some "sketches" of Forumz 2.0: http://koti.mbnet.fi/dima/forumz2 (http://koti.mbnet.fi/dima/forumz2) (use the "2" links if available because they're coloured). Though the links are in Finnish the sketches are in English.

Well, I personally love InvBoard... (not so much than my own creation, Forumz, of course :D)

Okay, there it is if someone's interested. :)

I'll just shut up now about this... :)
Are you anti-yabb?
If so I like the look of the Invision board.
How much support does it have? Large development community and all? I think in the end that would make my decision more than anything else. They are both the same basic style, so I would be more concerned with existing features and the ability for new features, security fixes, etc.
That is why I stick with Yabb. They constantly are developing it. I'm not sure about others though, they may be just as good or better.

Yeah, the crappy GAC forum http://atticwindow.adventuredevelopers.com/forum.php
is also made using PhP/MySQL ;D
It probably took you less time to make that from scratch as it did for me to figure out how to install YaBB properly Spyros, so don't sweat it, lol.
God forbid I ever have to install that thing again.
Shiver.
SHIVER.
Installing YABB is hard? For me it's so goddamn easy... ::)
Well, now you know how much better you are than me.
