I can host myself with php/perl/mysql/etc. I want the ability to post

thumbnail creation,etc). I would like to be able to archive the sites
pages in static html... (possibly just using wget... but if I could
export directly, that would be even nicer).
My thoughts so far:
- Perhaps use Wordpress with some plugins
- phpbb with (protected by basic http auth so I'm not exposed to the
constant barrage of phpbb's security problems).
Any recommendations for either phpbb, wordpress or something else?

I've used YaBB before. It is easy to use except some add-ons require
programming knowledge in PERL. I'm not sure how well you could get it
to work with images directly, especially the automatic thumbnail
creation, without an add-on or some extra programming in PERL. I have
looked at some options, and you could use a bulletin board in
conjunction with something like WebMagick or phpWebAlbum. Use WebMagick
or phpWebAlbum to manage the photo albums and then use the bulletin
board of your choice for the communication posts. Just an idea.
