Free Version Of This Bb Software


Bikerdude

Recommended Posts

If you're looking for a free forum software, you might want to take a look at phpBB: http://www.phpbb.com

 

This is most probably the best forum you can get without paying license fees. If you don't need it right now, I would suggest waiting for the new version 3.0, which is a huge step forward in comparison to the current phpBB 2.2.

 

edit: Redface was faster, it seems :)

Eh. phpBB is passable, but I don't really like it. I prefer SMF.

 

These forums beat both though. :)

There is also something like this: http://ipbfree.com/index1.php?

 

This forums uses it: http://z11.invisionfree.com/obsessionstudios/index.php?

Too late to save us but try to understand

The seas were empty -- there was hunger in the land

We let the madmen write the golden rules

We were just Children of the Moon

We're lost in the middle of a hopeless world

Children, Children of the Moon watch the world go by

Children, Children of the Moon are hiding from the Sun and the Sky

Cool!

 

I must say I really don't like your use of a Java applet to display the heading... Java chugs my system something terrible when it starts up for the first time. :( And I get (%@ Language=JavaScript %) - but with the parentheses replaced by angle brackets - displayed at the top of the page for some reason, which doesn't look like intended behaviour (Firefox 1.5).

 

Glad you like the forum though. :)

Yeah I need to look into that, I built this website when IE4 was the browser of choice.... When its loaded, the logo shimmers nicely - is there a lighter way of doing that without using java applets..?

 

nb. Ive remplaced the applets with a pic instead for the time being and removed that eroneus java text thing.

That's better. :)

 

Yeah, an animated GIF is the only way to do it without plugins.

 

Personally I'd just abandon the animation effect; it doesn't really add anything. But of course it's your site.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
