Just wanted to start a thread about this. The plan this spring (probably in May) is to convert this forum from phpBB to vBulletin. I did this with the AlpineZone Forums in February 2006 and haven't looked back. Feel free to post any questions or concerns here. I will post updates as we approach this conversion in this thread.

Will we lose the pixs already uploaded in the gallery?

Good question. The old gallery will not be accessible through phpBB any more obviously, but I can preserve the current photos like I did with the old AZ gallery:

http://www.alpinezone.com/gallery-archives/

The PhotoPost Gallery that is integrated into the AZ vBulletin forum is commercial software and I don't plan on purchasing a license for SkiADK and SkiMRV at this point. My recommendation would be to use your AZ gallery instead.

Better administration tools, spam management, more functionality, better security, easier to update, etc...
