Read the latest news from Shape5

As you may have noticed we have slightly modified our site design.  The biggest changes are on the homepage (if its whacky looking, be sure to clear your cache, in most cases those should resolved itself though).  The last design was focused primarily on Joomla. With the launch of new clubs we had to revamp the layout to also showcase other products to help you find the newest and greatest products from Shape5.

So why isn't phpbb on the homepage too?  Well, throughout the past months we've evaluated the club and if enough people are interested in club forum styles.  We came to the conclusion that phpbb just wasn't a good fit for Shape 5.  We are sorry to those who did enjoy it and it is sad to see it come to an end. We fully believe that phpbb is an awesome product and we do not regret taking on this endeavor it all. We still be releasing June and July club styles. Current phpbb club members at the end of July will be compensated with appropriate refunds and more. We will be sending those members more details about this soon. We will most likely will be launching another club for another platform in the future to take its place, we will provide more information as that develops.

wow that is kind of stupid as this is one of the reasons I signed up for Jomla, looking to create a web site and it just sucks that I spent the 49.99 and would have even considered paying extra for the forums look. I guess now I wont be able to intergrade the look I was going for on my website, well thanks for nothing!!!!!

Truly understand the business decision to make the change. I'm happy that you have decided to compensate those negatively impacted, which is not something you see on a regular basis.

Best regards, Dave @ PMDD Treatment

Integrating Kunena (and possibly other alternative forums) with Joomla is good enough for me.
