I have had several discussions with people wanting to choose the better of two forum software — InvisionBoard (IPB) or vBulletin (vB). First off, both forum apps requires a paid license.
IPB has a one-year license of $70 (you only get upgardes for 1 year) or a perpetual license of $185 (you get all future upgrades) while vB requires an owned license for $160 but you need to pay $30 annually to get continued upgrades. Do the math and it’s clear that IPB is the much cheaper alternative. But why do we need licensed forums when there are tons of other freewares like phpBB? Well, with paid licenses, you are entitled to support and you expect your app to run smoothly and bug-free while all patches are made available fast. It’s a form of security insurance. And vB being in the forefront of the forum development dozens and dozens of plugins or modules have been developed including themes and templates.
Of the two, vBulletin is already on it’s 3rd major release while IPB has just turned 2. In terms of functionality and scalability, VB has the edge — you can scale it down to almost full-text content or soup it up and run all sorts of additional plugins, modules and hacks.

It seems to me that a lot of people with visible work put a lot of thought into it before hand.
Recently I discovered a rant on quite a respected figure in the tattoo community’s Myspace. I say rant, it was more like pure venomous hatred.
It would seem that some find young people with visible ink, impatient and disrespectful, and they must all just think it’s cool to have visible work.
I’m 23, My first tattoo was on my shoulder, then my wrists, then I got a full sleeve. Then I moved to my hands, then neck and I also have a large part of my leg tattooed.
It took me about two years to get the opportunity to get my hand tattooed by my idol, and then my neck by an artist I greatly admire, a lot of time, effort and thought was put into both of these.
Even though I’m somewhat older and do have a fair bit of coverage, I might still be classed as young and “under-tattooed” to have such visible work, and I can’t help but think that’s kinda crazy!
Sure I’ve seen some 18 year olds with kanji on their necks or poorly executed skulls on their hands, and you can almost tell they rushed into it, wanting everyone to see their new work as clearly as possible, and fine that to me is impatient and maybe even attention seeking.
Basically what I’m trying to say is that not everyone who has visible work is disrespectful to the art, some people invest a great deal of time, money and effort into getting that particular location inked with the highest standard work possible.
It’s kinda funny to find prejudice within a community that tries so hard to divert it away from itself.
Thoughts?
I’m very interested… Can u tell me [url=http://www.mp3carz.com]more[/url] about it?
Thank u!
Thanks
I purchased an owned version of vBulletin because it was recommended to me as opposed to phpBB. I’ve learned I was wrong. vBull has so many bugs and problems and the support wwere unable to help me fix them. I ended up requesting my money back which they refused so I had to place a reversed charge (chargeback). This vBulletin has this “wide screen” problem in addition to a huge amount of other problems you run into instantaneously after purchasing and installing it. These problems are old and never get fixed in the default software. Their message boards also are useless. No more vBulletin for me.
A few things:
IPB may be in its second revision, but it really doesn’t matter. Matt, the lead programmer, was the guy behind IkonBoard (which had 2 or 3 revisions anyhoo). Featurewise both are relatively similar, with the latest incarnations (2.1 vs 3.5) being the addition of some AJAX trickery.
From my own use, vBulletin just seems to feel more right. I was not a fan of their drop-down implementation in the 3.x release, but after having used it, I have to say that it is a superior method of navigation versus the previous system.
