    From Mewcenary@1:103/705 to All on Tue Feb 8 14:33:20 2022
    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking into customisation now, and so my mind has turned to Shells.

    Other than those bundled in, what are ones that you particularly like and recommend?

    I found the File area with various Baja mods, but wanted to ask first before going through a lot of trial and error...

    Thanks everyone!

    My thought has always been it's probably best to make your own, for full customization and so that your BBS looks unique.

    Other BBS software would often have a menu editor, where you could customize your menus to your liking and make it your own. Often I like to do things like add a few items to my main menu for things like showing some game stats, running a few popular doors, etc.. I'm not going to get that by using a generic one-size-fits-all shell.

    i always recommend to start out using the renegade command shell and change a few things around. then draw your ansi screens. then setup doorgames.
    you now have a functioning bbs.

    regarding baja mods and addons. pick what you want.
