May I know is there any ASP.NET forum available with full source code and free?

I know in www.asp.net got, but I don't like the interface and feature, I like something like this forum, it very attractive and beautiful.
 
This forum was written in PHP, as were pretty much all the other ones.
If you want your own interface and features, why don't you download
and modify Microsoft's ASP.NET forum?
 
Have you installed AspNetForums? It's built with "skinning" in mind. Just create a new "skin" for it if you don't like the way it looks. Look in the skins subdirectory of the install directory.
 
But the features are different right? I not sure about AspNetForum, but I notice this forum got a lot of features which can benefit user
 
If you want to use this forum, you need a PHP host with mySql, and
about $80 for a 1-year license. www.vbulletin.com.

Remember, You get what you pay for. AspNetForum is free. vBulletin
costs lots of money. Think about it.
 
No, I mean something similar, not exactly this forum, because I will prefer ASP.NET forum rather than others (like php in this forum).

AspNetForum is the only choice?

No, but it's likely the most mature ASP.NET based forum you'll get that comes with the source code. Why don't you build in the features you feel are missing and post it in their Code Share forum thus giving back to the community and making it a better product? Otherwise, if you want commercially mature software, do as VolteFace has suggested and pay commercial prices.
 
Yes, you are right. Of course before I do it, I need to make sure there are not any available, right? Actually I did developed a forum in ASP but not much features compare with forum nowadays...
