Help me decided on which forum to use.

Hi, I just bought a new website that I want to take forward to be more popular. I have a choice of using vBulletin vs phpBB. Both skins look great to me and I am having a hard time picking which one to move forward with into the future with the website.

Please look at each template/layout and let me know what you think. Which one should I take forward.

Also, since I took over I am looking for moderators and different people to help promote the website.

The 1st one look real nice... but i'd go with the 2nd one. easier and better for my eyes

The first one is phpBB the second one is vBulletin.

If paying for a vBulletin license is not an issue, I'd suggest going with vBulletin and whatever theme you have for it (your links aren't loading). You can always get a theme customized by a designer if it's not exactly what you're looking for. For a forum, security and just overall user experience is more important than a theme... I'd prefer a simple theme versus a complex, hard to navigate (but very nice looking) theme.

I have decented to go with phpBB. Thanks... now to transfer all the files over to my server. Which I am doing now. Which is why you might not be seeing the above urls.

You have decided to go with phpBB. Though it's free but not very reliable I'd say. Many glitches.

As for me I personally prefer vBulletin. Though it's paid but very reliable and usable IMO.

Yes. Go for vBulletin. It's more better than phpBB.
