Hi Kevin, The SMF forum software looks fine, though a competing site to the one I'm building has been down for months due to a problem they are having with the software. It could just be their own issue and a lack of energy to deal with it. I've just read good reviews about phpBB. I should probably clarify my original request. I'm trying to set up a forum using phpBB3. In particular, I need to modify a style so that I have an empty right hand column so that I can put my advertising stuff in it (eg. newsletter sign-up form, small banners, Google ads, and so on). Nearly all of the styles out there take up the full width of the page, which is really surprising to me. Doesn't anyone with a forum use their site in a typical site way? It's not just about the discussion forums. It's also about marketing and promotion. In any case, I have picked my style, which is called Rengahenk and is listed on www.awesomestyles.com. I now need help to add the right hand column, install my header graphic and adjust the color scheme a bit by updating the css. I'm not looking for free help. I'm happy to pay someone who already knows how to do this kind of thing.
