Since I'm new here I want to first send my regards to our nice hosts here Smiley

And since I'm a web designer and developer too, i will dare offer some tips for improving this nice community:

1. Increase font size. I know it's nice having small fonts, but although the're elegant they're impossible to read without getting a head ache. As you see most forums and sites use Verdana as font style and size 12 px. Please consider this too, it will increase activity and make our posting easier. The font you use is cute, but for a content heavy site as a forum is Verdana is the font to use.

2. set DEFAULT: quick reply always show and return to topic after posting. Many people won't know and think the script doesn't have them. It would improve your members activity and experience here.

That would be it. Good effort so far. Glad to be a part of it.

Yup, always going to set about doing it, but somehow got sidetracked. Usually becuase my webhost got hacked.

Anyway, inceasing the fonts and darkening the font colours will be my main tasks soon.
