HI Michael, You've hit the nail right on its head. The problem is integration! I found that getting my UBB to upgrade into vBulletin was quite possible (I didnt say "snap") but cannot say the same about other permutations. I was smitten with UBB around this same time last year, and trust me, the very fact that vBulletin and phorum are database-backed (as opposed to flat files), is already a GREAT boon. I quite like vBulletin. I have hacked my code in such a way that it integrates with my usual user LDAP database. Hacking SQL is sooo much easier. Besides, I have tried to segmentize my code and added a lot more comments here and there, so functionality is quite extendible when required. Just a few thoughts, Shanx | as does ubb and other projects. The main issue we've had with all | of them (I might get corrected here, but it's an impression after having | installed a couple) is that they're made to do one thing, but not | terribly integratable with other stuff. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
