LeeFish.nl is a site I made to try to get to grips with the mybb forum software. I posted some items I had made for the sims game as a start so I would have some content - it has kind of spiralled since then.
There are now 4 people making things for the sims2 and sims3 games and each of them has an area of their own with a custom theme (all are running off the same template set). Its interesting to see how the themes all look pretty different, though I see it could be confusing for people.
The board is heavily customised, mainly due to ZingaBurga's awesome XThreads plugin. My biggest mistake (I think) was putting the forum in a sub-directory. We have a fair few links on other sites, so I am reluctant to change it, though I guess its doable with a redirect.
