There's no need to change the forum software. Just upgrade to the latest version of phpBB if you're concerned about security (if you're still running phpBB 2.x I'm not sure how easy it is to upgrade but I guess it's probably going to be a lot easier than migrating to different software entirely). Two great things about phpBB are:

What? Bigger resolutions than 1600x1200!? When that happened? They are going insane with those big resolutions... Myself I think that 1280x1024 is best resolution ever. |

The latest update that I'm aware of only had one theme available, the alternatives all needing upgrading to be still usuable. That was some time ago, so things may have changed. It's fairly straightforward to make some minor changes (eg the OS Dev logo in the banner) but wholesale look and feel changes are a lot of work. Personally, I don't like modern ever-evolving themes. Just a distraction from using the software. |
