vBulletin help...

Is there any possible way that i could get a free copy of vBulletin... im starting to do some skinning, just to add to my "skills" and maybe sell a few here and there. I have done 1 or 2 before, but that was for someone that had already bought a licensed copy, Im not going actually going to be using it as a Forum for my site, but more for testing of skins and what not...

I was just wondering if there was anyway that i could do this without paying 160 bux for a forum that im not actually going to use.... :p

Any help would be awesome... :D

vblite is free...
And it would be illegal for somebody to give you a copy of theirs so I'm SURE that is not going to happen...

Also you can lease a license for 1 year which is half the cost

thanks pank i wasnt aware of vblite.... and i wasnt really asking for someone to give me a copy of vB :D im not that kinda guy... lol.. anyways, i was just wondering if there was an alternative to actually buying vB... aka vBlite... :D

Are all of the templates the same or is there like a major differance... cause i dont think ive ever seen vBlite... :p... but i might have and not noticed...

Anywho... thanks pank... you da man...

Pank... where could i find a copy of vblite? i dont see a link on vbulletin.com unless they arent affilated with each other....

From their site

vBulletin Lite has been discontinued as of 1st August. A new version may be released in the future. Apologies for any inconvenience.

woops, sorry. Try a search on google, maybe somebody has one somewhere like hotscripts or a place like that. I doubt it though :(

ok... i guess i can just buy a leased license or something, im sure that it will pay itself off at some point or another.... :p
