Some of you will remember this from a couple of weeks ago. I'm currently writing a forum in PHP. I've made numberous additions / improvements etc. since I last posted so I though I'd invite you once again to sign up, test out and make suggestions.

- Slicker design, with a new logo
- Pagintation of forum listing (just doing it on topics nolw)
- Forums stats
- View another member's profile
- FORUM SEARCH - big feature, works well
- Counts replies to topics and # of topics in a forum

Stuff I still mean to do
- User profile options, show text only sigs / hide forum key etc.

Stuff I will add
- PMs
- User Rankings
- Pools

IMPORTANT NOTICE - recently I've been experiencing random balnk pages being returned to the browser. Through some debugging I can only surmise that the problem lies somewhere with my host. I will be copntacting them shortly, until then there's an intermediate reply page. IF YOU EXPERIENCE A BLANK PAGE, simple refresh and try again. Do so until it returns. It's incredibly annoying and I will get to the bottom of it!

Cheers

David

Lord Ozzum - LOL, so did I!!

David - Invision's full title is Invision Power Board, might want to find something else? But it certainly seems to be coming on well.

Cheers,

I realised, however I'm sure there are cases where names have contained the same "common words" in their name.

For example, would two companies called "Modern Web Design" and "Allied web design" have a conflict, despite they both contain "web design"? :S

At the moment I might stick with it (I feel confident my nbame's different enough), though I'm open to suggestions for new names

Cheers

David

PS - Just found a company called Invision - http://www.invision.com/InvisionLG/default.htm - that could clash with IPB?
