Hi, I'm just wondering,

I'm looking for a forum on my website and i think this one is pretty awesome. It looks like the FTD forum, so my question is, did you download this forumor did you rip it and made a lot changes yourself??
I can write some PHP..

Hope to hear,
ReaLBuZZ

This is really xo's to answer, but I think it's relatively stock phpBB:

I use it on my site as well. Very easy to use, very professional looking and operating, and best of all it's free and has a large user-support and modding community.

Yeah, pretty much stock phpBB. I've tweaked the default skin (subSilver) in the header area and added some small tweaks to highlight new private messages and when posting as guest. And I added small icon view of avatars in the memberlist.

All were pretty easy if you have a passing familiarity with PHP and once you get a handle on the templating system they use. The hardest part is tracking which file is the one you want to edit because there's a complex system of includes, as is to be expected in any project of this scope.

I wish their HTML was cleaner - it's that ca. 1999 hodgepodge of nested tables and non-CSS based formating. But overall, I've been tremendously happy with the software.
