Twisted Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 I used to know a really good site for a tagboard with lots of features including custom smilies but I went back to their site and it looks like the closed it down. Luckily I manged to still find the download for it. Try this one. http://sourceforge.net/projects/shoutbox If I happen to find this other one that is even better then I will let u know.

leezard Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 Shout boxes are fun as long as your site visitors are nice. I used to have a shoutbox on my page, but for the most part all it attracted was lamers and trolls from other hardware review sites that either wanted to advertise another site, or just use every cuss word in the book to tell me my site sucked. I spent more time monitoring the shoutbox and deleteing abuse posts than I did maintaining my site. Just an fyi that you might wanna keep an eye on it and see the type of posts you get at first.
