OK - here's a job for some of our early testers.
See on our home page - http://www.fusionbb.com/ Lower left hand corner. We have some "user quotes".
Well - we only have a few - if you have "feedback" you'd like to have featured there - please post it here.
I plan to randomize our quotes down there, once I have enough to do so.

Josh the portal is slotted to have a random quotes particle box. This will have it's own table in the database and will be configureable with a site permission as to who can add quotes to it. This could be used for quotes or 'tip of the day' or what ever type of random message someone wants displayed.

Awesome - once Fusion is more advanced, we can turn our home page into a fusion portal.

Yeah I think that's a good idea. May as well display those that show up at the front door that we're using what we sell.

FusionBB is taking online communities to a whole new level. I really like the subforums and photo galleries, and the user interface is clean and intuitive.

FusionBB Groks!
grok
/grok/, /grohk/, vt.
[common; from the novel Stranger in a Strange Land, by Robert A.
Heinlein, where it is a Martian word meaning literally `to drink' and
metaphorically `to be one with'] The emphatic form is grok in
fullness.
1. To understand. Connotes intimate and exhaustive knowledge. When you claim to `grok' some knowledge or technique, you are asserting that you have not merely learned it in a detached instrumental way but that it has become part of you, part of your identity. For example, to say that you "know" is simply to assert that you can code in it if necessary -- but to say you "grok" is to claim that you have deeply entered the world-view and spirit of the language, with the implication that it has transformed your view of programming. Contrast {zen}, which is similar supernal understanding experienced as a single brief flash.

Here is a quote for you ... feel free to use or not:
In reply to:
I have moderated and managed discussion boards since 1999 for various sites and networks, including a message board with millions of viewers for a top 25 internet company. FusionBB is shaping up to be one of the most feature rich and flexable message board programs available on the market. I am very excited to see the future of FusionBB, and convert over my two forum sites to FusionBB when available to the public!
- Jason Stix Buckley
All above true. I was the Community Manager and Quality Assurance Manager for eUniverse, Inc, which is now InterMix ( LINK). BTW, when I was there we were a top 15 net company. Since I left they now list as a top 25 net company. HMMMMMM ....

Speaking as an end-user, FusionBB incorporates a lot of 'user-friendly' things (the character counter for signatures is one innovation that comes to mind).
I wish every messageboard/site had these sort of things!!
