This will be interesting to see... I've had an EZBoard for a while, and assumed that everyone liked the UBB format better. I'd switch to a UBB like this, but like DJ said, you only sign up once and there's more to do, like user-defined polls, improved sig and profile features, etc. To me, the pros outweigh the cons, so I decided not to switch. <P>I'd say make the switch and see what happens. You can always have two boards, and keep the one that you like better.<P>-Brian<P>------------------

I never liked the fact that people have to sign up to post here, I get e-mail from readers all the time saying they don't like signing up for member names and such. I'm thinking of going to an EZboard format, but I'm not sure yet. That way you sign up fr one, and you can go to all of them.- Kinda nice and more voices. I don't want to use on of the Boardhost message forums that's just text, too boring. When I get time, I'll rig up something with Boardhost. Until then, I live with this and the 6 or so readers that signed up to post here. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"><P>------------------

I have no clue how Steve got that title, but me thinks it has something to do with the amount of posts on the board...

This board is okay with me. I could really care less what format it's in. It's all about the content baby.<P>------------------

I have an EZ board on my other site (i'm pretty sure that's what it is anyway) and I don't like it. I find this one much easier to sign up on. I also like how you're already connected to all these other cartoonist.<P><P>------------------

I like this board and the EZBoard both.
The YaBB messageboards are a real hoot, too.
One prob with YaBB is that you have to sign
up for every board you post in. But an
upside is that there are no popup ads, like
in EZboard.<P>I think there is a link to YaBB over at <A HREF="http://www.mrbilly.com" TARGET=_blank>www.mrbilly.com</A> <P>--Robert<P>------------------

Having been on many boards across the web. EZ board is not one of my favorites.... I really prefer the UBB style.

I can set you up with a board on my site D.J., free of charge. It's ad free. I think (not 100% sure) that I could set your section of the board up so people who aren't registered could still post.<P>------------------
