Looking for Community Software w/ Gallery, Forums, Marketplace

    As the title says, I'm looking for a community software suite that can accommodate everything I'm looking for in a website I want to put together.

    It's for an art based website where users can showcase their collections, a marketplace to sell their art, a trading and feedback system and also forums with a ranking/badge system. I want this to be membership based as well, free users and paid user benefits.

    I have checked out the IPS community suite but wasn't too impressed with it for the cost, also I have looked into xenforo and woltlab, I wasn't really impressed with any of these.

    Besides hiring a developer and paying a ton of money is there any suite out there that offers what I'm looking for?

    thanks,
    bobby

    Hi bobby,

    Im Kim. I'm a vbulletin developer. Have you checked vbulletin forum? https://www.vbulletin.com/ If you decided t use vbulletin I recommend you will use vbulletin 4 instead of vbulletin 5. vBulletin 4 has lot of mods and bit stable than vbulletin 5 is kinda buggy.

    I prefer xenforo too which I think best forum that you need.

    Thanks,
    Kim

    @bpack14 Take a look at Dolphin Pro at boonex.com/features, I think it has most of the features you'd need to use.
