ILiketoSmellGood - New forum dedicated to bath&body products

[tokenyank]

Name of your forum:
I Like to Smell Good

URL to your forum:
http://www.iliketosmellgood.com

Description:
With loads of retailers world round selling bath and body products and for the most part, the only 'community' to speak of is on individual sellers' websites which doesn't foster an unbiased review because let's face it... If you like the product enough to register on the company's forum, you aren't going to say many bad things!

In this vain, we decided to open ILiketoSmellGood which hopes to be a one-stop forum for bath and body affectionados to come and sing the praises of their favourites and/or warn others from ordering from trouble sellers. We also allow swaps/trades/selling/buying of products through the forums (supported with the iTrader hack) which alot of the forums will no longer allow due to moderation problems amongst others.

We realise that this type of board will not cater to a vast proportion of the population, but like our other forum MumsOnline, we hope that our 'nich?' userbase will develop into great online relationships and espouse the further use of bath and body products!

Tell us more:
Future plans have a full featured gallery (using Photoplog lite now), develop review and article section (thanks to GARS), adding a blogging feature (not sure if using vBlog or vBlogetin... I like vBlogetin 'out of the box' but development seems to have stalled. It all depends on how the board takes off. I've spent far too much money on MumsOnline on scripts/hacks/add-ons/etc that didn't work properly or just wasn't needed so I will bide my time with this site to see what happens in the future.

Why is your forum the best?:
I don't think it is... I don't think any forum is the "best" simply because there are forums to fit everyone's needs/likes but none that fit ALL needs and likes. But, in their own right and in their 'nich?', some forums can rise above others. With luck, ILiketoSmellGood will become one of those!
