Maybe start by making a basic forum with catagorys and then work on adding all the cool features. meanwhile eiSecure can work on a cool design and sail can help out with what he knows so far. I'm allmost done my php book.
also since not everyone is happy with "PhatBB" think we should still disscuss the name I guess for now we can use PhatBB and at a later time maybe when we are almost done can make a cool name that suites the forum
I'm not really that good at mysql yet but here is a access database layout that I was using for the asp forum I was making Didn't get very far with it but its a start? Have no Idea what all the types would be in mySQL
