Hi Graham,

thanks for your answer.
Well, but maybe some good arguments change the decision.
The most professional boards (ca. 70 %) are using vBulletin or Invision than a
heavy hacked phpBB.

Invision is used not so often till now, because the software is younger than
vBulletin.

Maybe it's interesting for you..
