Ubb also doesnt really use many resources because the posts are HTML files instead of .pl files, when browsing through UBB boards you generate many less processes but UBB doesnt have real threads which sucks bad, its not fully threaded and that sucks!!!<br><br>Kaoslord<br><a href="http://www.chaos-productions.com">www.chaos-productions.com</a><br>

Ubb more pretty? All you have do is a little customizing and this can look pretty too.What difference does it make on how it looks as long as it performs and perform wwwthreads does.Comparing ubb to this software is like comparing a yugo to a mercedes.I replaced ubb with wwwthreads and my users are more than happy with perfomance not to mention my server being happy because it doesn't have to load the bloated ubb script anymore.<br>Bob<br>webmaster@extreme-vb.net<br>http://www.extreme-vb.net<br><br>

>Ubb more pretty? All you have do is a little customizing and this can look pretty too.<br><br>Then why not make it look pretty;), this is the feedback room so I am giving my opinion. I have already stated that threads is much more powerful. I think that the tables etc on threads should be re-designed though:)<br><br>

Our virtual host shut us down. Their complaint was that UBB was using up all of their resources. Granted, our membership quadrupled overnight, but we haven't had a single complaint from the host since switching to wwwThreads.<br><br>Cecilia :-)<br><br>

I have UBB also (Up and Running). That is the major difference to me. I'm looking to find another wwwThreads that is up and running. The only one I have ever seen is this one. <br><br>Bob<br><br>

Ubb really sux. I took a long hard look at it and did a poll with my users. wwwthreads won hands down.<br><br>I am not sure your post here is very legit anyway. Not to mention the large screen grab you added. This is not a place to advertise your board or UBB. <br><br>Scream - I think you should remove his post from the board.<br><br>

>>Scream - I think you should remove his post from the board.<<<br><br>I have UBB up and running. I also have wwwThreads up and running. I don't think Scream has anything to worry about. I will be taking UBB down soon. I find the wwwThreads is more of a professional system. It seems to me that UBB is meant more for the novice. Kind of like a hobby board.<br><br>Bob<br><br>

I did not intend to advertise, I already have my fair shair of people on my on the website over 45,000. Besides This is the 'Ubb Vs wwwthreads' thread. So I was giving my point. I have already removed the screen shot of my forums, sorry if it offended people.<br><br>

If the forum supports HTML, simply code in the appropriate HTML tags for images (img src=). Be sure that the image is located whereever you reference the code.<br><br>If HTML isn't allowed, you can always use the img markup language available through these boards. Click on the "Markup in your posts" link when making a reply for information. Basically, the image markup allows the same thing as HTML. But instead you simply reference the location of the image, without having to do any other coding.<br><br>The boards here, from what I've seen, allow both HTML and markup. The forums I run only allow HTML on some, and markup on all. Quite easy to do.<br><br>Danbo<br><A HREF="http://danbo.com" target="_new">http://danbo.com</A><br><A HREF="http://danbo.com/forums/wwwthreads.pl" target="_new">http://danbo.com/forums/wwwthreads.pl</A>
