Get your own hosting and do it yourself.

The reason is that IBforFree somewhat limits you on some of the admin parts, InvisionFree being even more guilty. At least by installing and running your own board, you have complete freedom to do what you want with the board ;)

I'd recommend AS Hosting (http://www.as-hosting.com) because of their free package which (besides a hell of a package :D) included PHP & MySql which is needed for IPB. However, the only snag is that registrations are only accepted on Fridays 8pm GMT for an hour so you only just missed registering :(.

But if you can wait a week, definitely worth the freedom :D

Don&#39;t go for IBforFree. The website owner seems like he don&#39;t know what he is doing. Plus your limited to a lot of things. Like for one, you cant change your default skin. Meaning with those 30 something skins, you have the keep the IB one as default.

I like http://www.clicdev.com myself. I use it and i havent had any problems. Plus they offer you a subdomain. All for free.

Next best thing is to host it yourself.
