Of all those forum boards that are open source, phpBB seems to be the best. My forum is here (http://www.yellol.net/forum) with a nice and simple theme...
Alright, so here's the problem. First of all, before you register only the Annoucements could be seen. I remember I clicked something but I don't know where!?!? Any ideas?
I've seen forums where nothing (at all)...could be seen until you logged in. I want to make one of those but don't know how =[

All you need to do is set the permissions for all forums to NONE for guests, this forces you to be logged in to view/post anything.

Yea, I know that...but the stats are still visible.
Alright but the thing I'm trying to do right now is to make three forums visible. For some reason, only the "announcements" are. I tried making them viewable by guests but it doesn't show still.

Check the effective permissions for guest users as well, by going to the User Forum Permissions section. Also which stats are still showing?

A Ha! I says that guests cannot view or read the forums...where do I change the settings?!
