iShoutbox offers webmasters free remotely hosted shoutboxes for inclusion on their websites. What is a shoutbox? A shoutbox, which is also known as a tagboard, saybox, chatterbox or a chatbox, is an easy to add messaging service which allows your visitors to leave messages for you and the other visitors to your website, like a cross between a forum and an instant messaging service.

We offer full customization so that the colors of the shoutbox match your website fully. We currently offer 13 predefined skins and at least that many user created skins, and 6 smilie sets. The skins can be completely customized, and you can also define your own smilies and smilie codes. All the shoutbox functions are free and unrestricted (no paid versions).

We also offer technical support on our community forum., where you can post any questions, bugs, new smilie sets, or problems you might be having. The forum is located at the chat4all site, which offers (free of charge) chatrooms that can be added to websites. Different from shoutboxes, but also a lot of fun. Read more about chat4all here.

2012-01-22: Lots of updates
We have updated the shoutbox system today and added/changed the following items:

  • Tor Checking: It is now possible to check if a user who is trying to post a shout, is coming from the Tor network, and if so, deny the shout from being posted. This feature is off by default and can be turned on at the settings page.  
  • Layout change: We have changed the layout of the post form a bit. In the previous update, we moved the smilie/code links to icons that become visible when you move your mouse over the message field. This is still the case, but we now have added the option to make those icons visible below the message field. This is useful if the shoutbox is used on tablet like systems. This new feature is default for shoutboxes that use a single line messagefield. 
  • AJAX: Posting shouts is now being done without a full page refresh. Additionally, error and success messages that are being displayed will auto-remove after 10 seconds. Another change, is that the shout button will disable for a number of seconds after posting a shout. 
  • Archive: We added an option to display the archive in a popup window instead of in the iframe where the shoutbox is located. This is now the default for new shoutboxes.
     
  • New language: The shoutbox is now also available in the Persian language. 
  • Bug fixes: Several bugs have been fixed. The most notable one is that in some cases some smilies were not correctly transformed from code to smilie. Also some RTL (Right to Left) language issues have been fixed.
