Title: Change to invison power board
Post by: jimbooboo on 12 November 2009, 20:04: As above. Overall its a far more superior forum better layouts, features etc. However its not free, not expensive either.

Post by: jv on 17 November 2009, 12:51: it may well be but having spent 7 years using yabb/smf i can't see enough reason to change. i also have some strange desire to not always support the supposed market leader :grin:

Post by: Horney on 17 November 2009, 14:34: There's only one thing on this forum that annoy sme and that's VWKev. On no wait, sorry got that wrong. It's images sizes. I love on NR, Edition etc you can post a bigger res picture and it reduces it to fit whatever size browser window you have open.

other than that carry on! :grin:

Title: Re: Change to invison power board
Post by: jimbooboo on 18 November 2009, 12:33: Reason why i suggested invison power board is the much cleaner layout. More features in the pm section etc. You can have addons like an arcade and stuff like that. More user friendly.
Title: Re: Change to invison power board
Post by: Guy on 18 November 2009, 13:06: i am usually one to embrace change... but also, if it ain't broke why fix it

i prefer the layout of this forum due to it's simple layout and ease of use... its like an old friend... I know where I stand with it

Post by: VWKev on 25 November 2009, 14:21: IF the board changes software then it would be stupidity to move to invision, vbulletin is the only proper forum software.
