Simple, elegant, easy to use, easy to setup and easy to maintain. I folded in all my existing website users into my new letterman subscriber list effortlessly. You can also embed images too. I love the front-end admin access to email functions, and did I say it’s just really easy to use! Now I’m communicating with my masses and not struggling with the architecture as I was with my last emailer. Cheers and kudos to the folks who put this workhorse together!

I embedded this forum after many failed attempts with another popular forum which will remain nameless. So Fireboard was my second choice, man what a fall back. Runs rock solid and a dream to install. It has all the secure features I need, and it embedded nicely into my joomla template without any struggle. The plug-ins were just as easy to install as well. My forum members are quite happy with it, though some think its a bit simplistic with the features & template choices. I think a private messaging system would be a great out-of-the-box feature to add. Other than that, I love it.

I tried for five days to install this forum, but sadly I could not make it run. I asked questions on the SMF forum, and when I still didn't understand and mentioned that the manual they kept referring me to was to vague, they marked my Kara points down for it. NOT A NICE COMMUNITY for "average Joe" website builders! So I dumped it, and went with Fireboard. Fireboard loaded on the first try, and I installed a few more plug-ins with no problems as well. If only I loaded Fireboard first. I would have saved me some headaches.
