Mark...

Did you do the actual, physical setting up of this board? I want to start a board of my own for my family members, and I want to know how easy or good it is to host a board here.

I have another site I like better, but they're not doing new boards right now.

Hi Erika,

Yep I set it up originally. Took about an hour or less. Very easy.

Ezboard will allow you a free 30 day trial. So if it does not work, you don't loose anything other than some time.

Chelle did all the hard work adding the graphics etc, so she can tell you about that.

Have fun,

Mark

Oh...you actually have to pay to host a forum after 30 days? I'm not sure I want to do that. The other site I'm looking at is totally free forever.

Yep, after 30 days they charge you for 6 months. Then after 6 months it comes due again. The amount charged is based on how popular the board is (How many posts).

But even if it is huge, with hundreds of posts a day, it is not that bad at all. The free ones tend to throw a lot of ads up... and I hate ads. In fact, I think Ezboard (this site) has a free version, but it has ads. But like I said... I don't like to see ads.
