Using FlickR to exchange userinterface (UI) design ideas (phpbb+drupal forums)


By dgtlmoon - Posted on 20 October 2006

Been working on a project recently, initially just looking at the differences between phpBB and drupal Forum for a possible migration into drupal.

essentially all i'm doing is posting some images under a certain tag name and then adding some notes to certain regions of those images, seem s to work pretty damn well, saves all that annoying point-at-smudgy-spot-onthe-screen kind of stuff.

I think the tradeoff is essentially that ;

  • phpBB is a very finely tuned forum machine with lots of developers all adding hacks to *just* deal with forum interests
  • Drupal is a pretty big framework for doing pretty much anything web related that has probably more developers than phpBB, therefor the efforts are spread a bit more thinly across the whole board with not as much research/development gone into the forum aspect of it
