PHPbb vs. vBulletin

[moonclamp]

I have phpbb2 on my main forum,

In vanilla format vbulletin is much better but there are fully modded versions available ... in all honesty there are a lot more hacks available for phpbb that I can't yet find for vbulletin:

Phpbb hacks that I can't find for VB:
a fully integrated free photo album
the buddy list lets you see who has added you
you can see who has visited your profile
you can block people as well as ignore them
the ICQ and msn activators all work properly ... they don't here

Also the templates are in files and easier to edit in dreamweaver or similar

best of all is that it is free.

However:
The things that sold vbulletin to me are the new features like the advanced member search, the payment systems and the wysiwyg editor, which are still not available on phpbb

If I can find the hacks above for VB then this will be perfect
