Anyone have some new opinions? This thread hasn't been very helpful so far.

I initially tried vBindex when I was moving my site to a new server and upgrading to vB3.01 in the process. I really thought the installation procedure was excellent with vBindex, very straightforward and almost hands free. The output, even though very nice, was not aesthetically what I was looking for ... maybe I got to used to vBhome lite for vB2 and was a little uncomfortable with the new scheme.

A couple days later, as I was incorporating hacks to my vB, I decided to try vBadvanced CMPS, just to see what I was missing. I instantly liked the setup. Installation wasn't as easy as vBhome (although it wasn't really tricky or troublesome either), but once I had it set up, I liked what I saw both in the frontend and backend and decided to switch to it from vBindex immediately. vBadvanced reminded me more of vBhome, which is probably why I was more comfortable with it (otherwise, I would have stayed with vBindex, as it is also an excellent hack).

Took me a while to try and incorporate my own left menubar to the clumn setup (always something I had to deal with when I try portal addons like vBportal, vBhome, etc). But I have gotten it to something I can work with properly.

I am not yet done with my modifications, hence the missing copyright info at the bottom as well as other links, but I'll be able to complete my layout by this weekend

Just my two cents...

i have tested all portals at one time or another and have come to the conclusion that vbadvanced is by far the easiest to mod, i dont need seperate skin files like you do with some portals. but like all hacks it needs editing to fit with the forum, lol i don't know any hack i have used that didn't

I signed up on the VBAdvanced site but never received the confirmation email. I sent a message to the moderator but haven't heard back from him/her as of yet. Anyone know what's going on?

Out of my personal taste, I prefer vBIndex. It's just a great piece of code.
