I just upgraded the forum at www.bangkoktobabylon.com/forum to phpbb3. The process was very easy.

phpbb3 is much more secure and faster vs. phpbb2. Certainly worth taking a look at phpbb3. vbulletin is rock solid ... that is for sure. Lots of good options these days.

Ok, I finally got around to upgrading. I still have to customize the template. Let me know if you are having problems.

To Do:
Personal Concert Stats are broken...

Attachments are back.

two things.

1. could you set it so that links automatically open a new window?
2. is there a 'quick reply' box in phpBB?
3. the new layout is much better.
