Yeah, it is SMF:

Highly customized as I can see, so they must used some custom code/script for this as well.

AngelinaBelle:
opeedo,

Were you able to use SimplePortal articles to do what you wanted with your forum?

opeedo:
No i was not, honestly. the guy (gistmania.com) has added some extra coding that allowed him to create a  special page for important forum topics, he then makes them appear on fronpage with specially attached featured images. . . I need you gurus in the house to help me with it.

AngelinaBelle:
SimplePortal already has something called "articles"
This can be used to make important forum topics appear on front page.
It does not have special coding for specially attached feature images, though.
But if the images are at the beginning of the article topic, then they can show up on the front page.

If you are interested in the special coding used by the author at gistmania.com, then he would be the best person to talk to about how to implement this at your site.

opeedo:
Ok Thank you guys at simple portal. . . .you are the best. .  but i hope simple portal would go extra mle to create something like that in the nearest future :'( :'( :'( :'(
