Hey Guys,

I want to let you know that due to the many issues I have experienced with vBulletin in the past few years that I am considering transitioning the site to Invision Power Board. Their product features a number of built in Apps that will further tie in the functionality of SaggerWorld in to one interface. I am in the process of setting up a test suite and will be evaluating it over the rest of the week.

The good news is that conversion from vBulletin, and PhotoPost is an option. The downside is that this going to require significant investment on my part.

Please let me know your thoughts... you can find more info here http://www.invisionpower.com/suite/. If any of you visit http://www.boxersarecool.net this is the software they use. I especially like their gallery app.

Having been a forum admin for over 4,5 years (not anymore though) I know the pro's and con's from a lot of different types of forum software. Worked with nearly all of them during that time, I personally think that the Invision Power Board system will be an improvement if SW can maintain his current features. When experimenting myself I've seen significant differences in speed between vBulletin and Invision, Invision always winning on page loading speed. And ofcourse I'll stay with SW in these horrible times:)

Speed and Rendering are the important ones I am looking at... as for keeping the features this doesn't appear to be an issue. In fact depending on how we proceed we could even be add more :)
