Im trying to figure out the best way to construct my site. I just installed VB and am still trying out all the features. The way I see it, you can either build your site around VB or build VB around your site. One aproach has a little bit better control and the other has the advantage of already being built and familiar. Nevertheless, you have 2 building paths whic can both get you the required results. What are your prefrences for building VB into a dynamic site? Or do you guys like to just upload it and hope for the best?

I would give a really good answer that would make absolutely no sense so I will leave it for someone else.

My preference however is to use VB as a backend and user authentication intergration system. Adding hacks or upgrading the boards seems easier that way. Plus this is a great hacking community and everyone is familiar with vb.

well if you know a little php then its not so hard making most kinda hacks, plus the template system makes it much easier.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
