I have since changed to a vBulettin kind of look. I'm still hacking it about and making subtle changes, but I am the kind of person to be constantly updating / refining anyway!
BTW, I am using version 1.3, though it is not 'released' yet, it is still in beta stages, it is very good!

Not sure what you mean...
You can download it and install it, or you can use the on-line 'test' one.
The test one will give you access to the admin panel as if it was your own, so you can try most things out.
here is a link to the demo forum. Log in as admin with the passord admin to get access to the admin and mod panels.
But, to just access a IB forum, you don't need to download anything.

Nice!!
Yes, the two are related, it's down to cookies.
Make sure you insert your domain details in the Admin cookie panel.

I`m afraid the scores do not make too pleasant reading for the XBox and PS2 fanboys.
This was Site of the Month in Edge magazine at some point last year.
