Rep Power: 14 | | Site changes. Are we going to keep the front page like it is, where the last post and thread starter's name doesn't appear anymore?
I honestly won't click some posts because I see who started the thread...

Rep Power: 6 | | I can put that stuff back. I am messing with formatting right now in preperation for the News Feed for our News Reporters.
I am going to be putting back the thread starter and last post date/time soon.

Rep Power: 9 | | is it possible to put the page links back up for each thread? it's easier to jump to the last page of a thread.

Rep Power: 25 | | Yea I think that part should stay the same. I'll check a thread when I think/know someone responded to me.

Rep Power: 25 | | and when I click on the Vikings thread I actually traveled back in time to the year 2006.
In other words, threads with multiple pages always bring you to the first page.

Rep Power: 6 | | The thread title link always went to the first page. I have removed the page links but there still is a link to goto the last post. The blue arrow point right will take you to the last post.
Probably not the most obvious link. I will figure out a way to make this more "user friendly".

Rep Power: 14 | | You might still be working on the layout...
Having the frontpageslideshow is neat and all, but I have to scroll ~1300x down before I can read the threads.
Maybe there could be a link straight to only the portal (latest threads) that could be bookmarked? Just so there can be a quick look if there is anything new and interesting in a thread.
Also Venom mentioned that the link takes you to the 1st page. There might be a way to remember the last post someone read and have it go there... I know I've seen it work like that on other forums.

I am working to make all this stuff configurable for registered users. I believe by tomorrow, you will be able to turn on and off the news flipper and set the number of additional news threads you would like to view. (can set to 0 to remove additional news threads all together.)
I am looking right now for a link that remembers the last post read from the recent threads. I will get on this right now crew, this will be useful to users for sure.

Rep Power: 14 | | Agreed. But not complaining since it could lead to making a few dollars.

Rep Power: 6 | | Okay, in the recent threads area, there are 2 arrows, the down arrow will go to the first unread post. The right arrow will goto the last post.

Rep Power: 6 | | GCO, let me know if you are still not seeing the down arrow to the left of the title, I will double check to make sure all is good permission wise if that is the issue.

Rep Power: 10 | | Two quick suggestions.......
1. Is it possible to show a date-stamp on the flipper?
2. Can you make it so that if you click on a post icon, it brings you to a page that displays all the posts with the same post icon? |
