Well I have spent the past few hours thinking about copying the members avatars from teh vB database to give them back to them but 447 members. You think it would be better just to let them reupload it on their onw?

I fully converted a vB to phpbb3 and no avatar conversion. you think something like this would keep people from using phpbb?

Just a question... I normally see people go from the free boards to paid boards but not as often from the paid boards to free boards... any particular reason?

^^ Usually it's either because the owner can no longer afford vB support/upgrades or because the copy of vB being used is not a valid license

How badly do you need to convert from vB to phpBB3, or have you already done it? If you don't have a good reason to convert, then you shouldn't do it...

That said, if you do have a good reason or have already made the conversion, I'm not sure what to tell you. phpBB3 is too new to have good conversion scripts for it.

well its not that I am going to use a paid board I just wanted a different paid board. so I had to sell my current paid board for the new one. if that makes sense? XD

Anysho Website I am going to put the paid forum on is a GFX community and IPB would be the best soulition for that
