InvisionFree has 700+ Graphic Boards, many of these "Graphic Boards" are lazyness, and were <span style="color:#FF0000">quick 5 minute set-up</span>. Now good quality Graphic Boards, give more to experiance from than just tons and tons of forums, which will be explain in this guide.

Lets start off by making a Category name, then name should represent what you are doing in this "Category". ACP > Forum Control > Net Category ED Prime or ED Home , basically stating this is the "Important Topic Forum". Now we have a Category, now were going to make some forums.

ACP > Forum Control > New Forum > Annoucements or News. The reasoning of this forum called Annoucements, is because of "Important Topics". This is where Staff, and Admin share important information that is going on, a goal they have reached, or a new member to a team. [<span style="color:#FF0000">BAD</span>] Letting your memebers accesse to the Annoucements Forum, you don't want it fluded with useless spam, where it well make your forum all unoraganized. [<span style="color:#006600">GOOD</span>] Let him read about it don't hide or what a wasteful Category, don't hide anything from your members there your source of enjoyment at your site. Now lets make one more forum for these category.

ACP > Forum Control > New Forum Feedback and Support. Feedback is important, you want your members to express themselves by letting them give you *<span style="color:#FF6600">Ideas</span>, <span style="color:#FF6600">Suggestions</span>, and <span style="color:#FF6600">Loving</span> Comments*. Support is ALOT members need. Now think how would members, be at your forum if they needed help to help you? Its like this, You Give I Give Lets Give to All !.

Now that are "Important Topics" are finished and complete, lets move on with some other fun.

ACP > Forum Control > New Category Hang Center, or Hangout Center . There is 2 good simple names. What you do not want for a name on a category is this: <strike>.:Everyone this is the HANG CENTER:.</strike>

• Introductions

- Good way for you and your staff to meet you new members, to help and support your furture in your IF forum.
