After using Joomlaboard over at ChessProgrammers.com for a week...it was...okay, but the fact was that the board was too slow, and it just didn't have the same level of visual appeal that the rest of the site has. So, we decided to go with PHPBB, which has so many great skins and plug in available for it. Fortunately, PHPBB is bridged with Community Builder (www.Joomlapolis.com), too. That means that all your forum posts appear on a single tab. Want to know what any particular member has posted? Check their forum tab. Hope to get some more skins working this next week. Each skin requires some tweaking to support the bridge. For the most part, the changes are trivial, but it takes. time. Also, the Private Messaging system is working. Whenever you view someone's member profile, you'll see a Quick Message box. The problem was, there was no way to check your message or reply. Seems to be working how, and tells you if you have Private messages right on the homepage when you log in. The live video interview with Vasik Rajlich is coming up on the 5th. Hopefully that will go well and we'll discover that the complexities of the video chatroom can actually be mastered. Would be nice to set every Sunday evening as a date where people would meet and hang out. All for now, Roger
