Hi,
I own a web based community which I have been running for over a year. The community has proved to be very sucessful and I have learnt alot.

Over the past few months, I have been more and more busy with work and my studies. The reason I am posting now is to offer this community to anyone who is interested.

Ill just tell you a little about the community. Basicly the theme of the forum is computer generated art. Authough other niches are covered the main area of focus is computer generated (or digital) art. We use a vBulletin forum which has been considerably hacked to suit our needs. The license is owned, so we do not have to worry about renewing every year. On the forum we have many extremely talented artists who show off their work.

I will be selling the community, here is a list of whats included.
*40,000 Posts
*700 Members
*Many very loyal members
*All of our themes (including the ones in development)
*The domain
*Hosting
*An Owned vBulletin license
*All graphics, splashes, coding we have done

I hope I have not forgotten anything.

Something you may want to consider, starting up an internet forum these days and making it sucessful is an extremely hard thing to do these days. This forum was one of the last on the boat and it has survived. Not many opportunitys come up like this these days.

Please, consider the offer carefully.

To contact, please email me (use the email button).

I have deliberately not disclosed the name of the forum, contact me and you will find out.

Thanks

Yes, I am unsure of what has happened but I am now contacting the host. This is not exactly timely however I am sure the situation will resolve.

Well, I for one am interested in your forums, but not without seeing them. I would hope that you'd want to extend your timing to allow folks to see what you've got.

When the site is back up I will respond to all with the URL. I have extended the time allowed to bid for one day. So at 1pm on the 27th bidding will end.
