    phpld has lots of well designed themes. At the same time its very popular and can find lots of support issues on the net

    My suggestion would be, forget about using someone else's ready-made script. The reason almost all web directories are useless clones of each other is because they use pre-coded scripts.

    FYI we coded our own directory engine. It was a herculean project but it was worth it because now we have a directory which rmanages itself. Nobody else can say that.
