Ever heard of wwwthreads? Infopop aquirred it and renamed it ubb.threads. It's been around for a while, and has literally tons of features. Recently version 6.0 was released with the advent of templates. To edit the look and feel of the forums.
"About he hosting options - I'm not sure I could afford hosting for my ubb.classic - I would basically need a dedicated server, and I cannot afford that."
If you were to use Infopop hosting you get a ubb.x with it. Which uses a mysql backend. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
