yeah first you want to intergrate the main page, so to set all the variables in it!

first, you have to have them assigned to a group. so 1 (admins), 2 (mods)and 6(clan members) and to create a mysql SELECT something like

SELECT * FROM '.$db->prefix.'users AS u LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'groups AS g ON g.g_id=u.group_id  WHERE `group_id` =1 AND 2 AND 6 ORDER BY u.num_posts LIMIT 6 DESC

and then do something  like you said

 <img src="<?echo $url ;?><? echo $urlf; ?>" height="60" width="60" />

just add the variables in

want any clan help, have a look at another post

sent from hotmail and gmail with no problems

(in my opnioin)
For a begginer you have bright a complex hosting kit which i dont think you will use to its maxium. you have got a dedicated server to host a small site? I would of recommended a simple hosting pacakge to get you started.

the web hosts on 123-reg donst come with MYsql but other hosts do! and for cheeper prices! and even more than you are getting with 123 reg

Yes it is.

with a bit of tweeking to the viewtopic code

there is a top list. http://www.hostreview.com/webhostaward/ … bhost.html

I am using one of them in the top 5 and i must say i have had a verry good experance with them, feature and support wize.

what smarty said is true, there are many hosts offing alllot of bandwidth, my host gives me 50 gig of b/w and 3 gb of space, i will not be using near the for anytime soon but its £10 per year.

Looking at the worlds no.1 host, they give plenty of bw to run a site, even 3 lol

What type of project is it?

try posting on http://punlancer.com  aswell

i guess it depends on who your forum is aimed at, if its like a pet forum, chances are, many of them wouldnt know, but a forum like this, a majorty of the people will know.

And you can modify punbb when ever you want, i would like to see this product in action

for the text size, try editing the css postsignature. thats what my ardvark says lol

and the italics

replace line 330

<?php if ($cur_post['edited'] != '') echo "\t\t\t\t\t".'<p class="postedit"'.$lang_topic['Last edit'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_post['edited_by']).' ('.format_time($cur_post['edited']).')</p>'."\n"; ?>

OK install a fresh copy of punbb on your host, i presume you know this as you have done it before wink
so you need to have the forum set up and running to continue:

Now for the next bit, we need to know what database managment software you are using, I might be PHPmyadmin??

in the wiki there is a mod to get posts from a catagory on your forum and disply them
