    I like free.... :D

    It's about the Beijing Olympics so the site will probably be done after the Olympics are done. So SMF will work fine for it. ;)

    congrats on your first domain purchase.
    get ready for aggravation.

    SMF is a good choice if you cannot afford the vb license.
    and there are plenty of themes to choose from.
    if you have any problems let me know, i'm good with SMF.

    Congratulations Buffy.

    Wouldn't it be better if you opened the forum up prior to the Olympics ?

    Actually, I was really scared the first time. And I guess we'll see how it goes. Once it's done, I'll let you know how much I enjoyed it. ;)

    Good job on taking the step to buying yourself a domain name!

    But, why did you choose to make a forum about the Beijing Olympics? It's not going to last forever and I can't imagine revenue being high.

    I love the Olympics and I'll be watching most of it. And I love forums. So why not combine the two? And it won't cost a whole lot to do, so it won't need much revenue to make a profit. ;)

    Oh, I see. You're doing the whole site on your own. Ha, I'm so used to hiring people to do my own stuff.
