Thanks for the input, after playing around the choices....I think I might go for SMF. Looks pretty cool software, So far I have checked Phorum, phpBB and SMF only. The only negative thing I can tell so far is there is no gettext infrastructure on SMF or phorum...but atleast there is a means to translate the sofware :-) GR mrfroasty K. N.
