I prefer the look of Phpbb but.. its too hard to personalise which is where Invision is better. Also I have just found a new one called Simple Machines! Looks quite useful..

Found it and delted it .. I thought like Invision the focus was off the forum boards and all about the extra stuff :s

If I wasn't able to afford vBulletin I'd make my own. I hate phpBB, its to basic, and Invision has become a imitation of vBulletin.

But if you had to use one of those, I'd suggest Invision.

i like phpbb the best, looks much nicer and is much more customisable.

actaly ipb 2.0 is more exspnive and far outstrips vb in alot of ways, even 1.3 can hold its own agaist version 3 of vb. vb isnt realy that nicer forum system imho.

I'd say vBulletin has to be the best, but as you cant afford it.. invision

Im an invision person myself.
Its easy to use but lacks certain small features in vB like able to set up different av sizes for different masks and and to set what group can change there member title ect.
Shame vB dosnt do a free version...

On that, ipb does have the abilty to resize aviatrs, wich as far as i can tell isnt a feture u get with vb.
Plus vb has no real moding community, unlike invison, as with ipb you can get a hack or mod for more aless anything .

I dont get why everyone likes vBulletin more then Invision.
I believe that Invision is much easier to skin, there are more resource sites, and the overall board is just better!

Welll its fully skinable, play around with the html templates and you can make it looks how ever you want, Its alot of exsgrtion that its templates are hard to work with :D
