Whole way I got started in webdev was skinning IPB for various gaming forums because it had such good UIUX vs vBulletin and SMC/phpBB etc. It was awesome. Blew my mind when someone tried to pay me. Thank you IPB.
- dutchbrit 4y agoHaha same here, started skinning on 1.3. The good old Invisionize days!
- RainaRelanah 4y agoPunBB (now: FluxBB) for me. Seems like Connor broke DNS for the site. 15 year old me was probably a nightmare for them to deal with, but it was my first involvement in OSS, and I'm still proud to have hosted two of the largest install bases.
- onedr0p 4y agoThat's a name I haven't heard in a long time! PunBB was the cleanest looking forum software I remember hacking at. I integrated into a bittorrent tracker I ran long ago.
- gardenhedge 4y agoFor me it was adding extensions (like arcades, shops, etc) to phpBB boards. I used to follow tutorials saying replace this line with this line and add these lines here. Shoutout to whoever made those extensions and tutorials!
- Eumenes 4y agoThere are still many active forums on the web with that UI (not sure if IPB). Alot of hobbies (cars, firearms, hunting, ham radio, hiking, geocaching, etc) still have communities using these forums!
- kuramitropolis 4y agoCan you link me to some? I only seem to be able to find the newer versions.
