Hi @ all,

Does somebody want's to help me building my own forum.
But, is it allowed to host it from a free web-based FTP-Server?
Because I don't have the money to buy such forums.
And I don't want such advertisements like some free; ready-to-use forumhostcompany's are giving you when you make your own free-forum there.
Can you do all options when you are using a free; ready-to-use forum?
Or is it limitated?
If I had the money to buy a forum (and the permission from my mom) I would buy it, but I don't.
So that's why I'm asking this.

Greets, Toxical Power!

PS: Where can you find any good tutorial's which show's you how to make your own Theme?

Are you talking about free hosting or free vBulletin forum?

You can run vB from free hosting (I would not recommend it as your provider may just shut the server one day and you will loose everything). However you can't get vBulletin for free.

There are a number for "freeware" boards out there. But frankly they suck and you would be better not running a forum at all than using them. ;)
