oh yeah i see the php, hm weird i seen somethin to do with cgi earlier. ugh post nuke a terrible creation same with its older brother phpnuke both should burn in hell theres loads of other types of databases these apps are starting to use, for example phpbb which is just a kick ass forum uses. msaccess, mssql, odbc, mysql(3 and 4) postgres7
not alot goes wrong with mysql unless you are doing it through command lines and the likes it gets realy messy which is why someone invented an app called phpmyadmin which is amazing for administrating mysql.
would be nice to see your front page interact more with ubb though like pull its news from it and use its user database like most 3rd party portals i have made for phpbb, news/content/download upload managers/games+scoreboards/ the limit is endless if you have a strong modable forum to start with
