Internet forums, also known as bulletin boards, are a great way
to encourage people to return to your site. If you have a
business, you can use your forum as a customer service too.
It can also be used as a community for those who use and love
your products -- possibly generating more sales.
Devine-Designs.com installs Simple Machines and YaBB
Forums products. These are open source forums and incur no
cost for the forums themselves as long as proper copyright
information is maintained on the forums. The cost to you
is simply for the installation and customization of your board.
If your site already has a bulletin board, we may be able
to transfer your data to the Simple Machines format.

What we install:
- YaBB CGI based forums
(best for those who do not have PHP available with their web
site hosting.
- Simple Machines Forums -
a PHP based forum with a world of possibilities.
Included with Installation:
- A customization of your forum style sheets
which will complement your current website design.
- Instruction in the use and management of
your forum.
Beyond Installation:
- Integration of a current forum database
with your new forum (if possible).
- Creation of further "themes" for your
forum (these are style sheets and files in addition to the
initial customization which will allow your members to
choose how they wish to view your forum). This
option is only available for the Simple Machines Forums.
- Data back up. This is something
that you could easily do yourself, but we would be happy
to do it for you if you wish.
- Data Recovery - should a situation
occur that causes the loss of board data, we can assist
you in the recovery of your data. (The data recovered will
of course depend upon the data that has been backed up.)
Sample
boards will be featured soon.
