Please, Please - don't feel as though I am ungrateful for the forum you have created, or feel as though I am some God of forums, these are just some suggestions being given in a humble manor.

Anyways, here goes:

1.) The new topic button should be placed at the top of the forum list, if this forum grows, as we all know if will - I don't want to have to scroll through 20 posts to post a new topic - Maybe place it with the navigation at the top of the forum (ie: Forum Index - Suggestions)

2.) Put my profile stats underneath of my name, I have also loved forums that give out badges.

3.) Add forum subscriptions. Make it so that I don't have to go digging for my reply.

Those are just some suggestions. Now, I understand how adding one thing in a line of code can break another - so if these aren't possible - I understand. Keep up the work.

I just realized that the msg center is sort of like subscriptions, I actually like the setup - so scratch that one, but I don't think that replies made by myself should be sent to the message center.

I can add those features for you, sure.

Also the forum is nested, not many people realise this, so you can actually reply to peoples individual posts, thats how the msg centre works best. If someone clicks the reply button on your post and not just use the quick reply at the bottom.

I have another suggestion - I think that there should be a new forum called "Introduce Yourself" - mainly because I don't want to end up scrolling for 6 hours to see the new post and say hi. Then everyone could have their own little topic of why they came and who they are.

Just a Suggestion (JAS - I don't want to type that all out anymore)

JAS -

I don't know forums very well - and how they are set up - but if you apply the css 'overflow: hidden' to the these td cells - the text wont overflow in any gecko browsers (as it is now - just look at my first post). If it ends up disappearing in any IE use the following:

<!-- [IF lte IE6]>overflow: visible<![endif]>

This still validates as well - since it is a feature of IE. Just thought I'd suggest.

Yeah I've seen that a few times. Turns out it's not a css bug, it just happens from a laggy browser does not refresh some of the cells sometimes while the page is loading.

It usually fixes itself when you refresh, so I dont know what I can do about it.

If you find one that doesn't fix when you refresh take a screenshot and show me.
