Question

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a company or otherwise that was allowing users to setup forums on their service, ala UBB? (preferably with customisable structure so I can set the title gif and background to match the web site it is linked from)

I would say without banners but seeing as I'm looking for a free service somehow I don't see that...


Thanks.

Try http://www.yourfreeforum.com I found this from the AT&T HSD forum that is hosted here. I have also used the discussion package he is using. It is an excellent package.

Lemme know how it goes.

CoolBoard.com has a very UBB-like interface

Thumbs up

I've been really happy with EZBoard:
http://www.ezboard.com/

If you know a bit of HTML, you can pretty much customize anything on your board.

It's very UBB-ish.

Thanks a lot to everyone!

I've now set-up an ezboard forum (have a look if you like at http://pub22.ezboard.com/budsu) in the style of the WWW site I designed.

yourfreeforum looked too overly complicated for what I wanted to use. Although generally good structure the people who were to use it don't have too much of an attention span...

And erm, I never checked out coolboard, sorry


But thanks a lot to all three

Take care,

Stu.
