    [​IMG] I hate change ...

    ... but then again, keeping things the same way hasn't worked too well for me so far either. ;)

    Seriously, great work! You should do this for a living!

    [​IMG] I think the Poll votes should be visible even if you haven't voted.
    The results of a poll can give useful insight and you should not have to cast your vote just to get that information.

    [​IMG] Would it even be possible to add the "Who's Online" feature again?

    I really liked that. (especially if I had created a post and could simply go to that and see if anyone was reading it at all...)

    You have recent visitors on top of every forum page that isn't an actual post... It's like Who's Online with a bit of delay.

    In my opinion (which realy doesn't mean much) the 'who's been online' should be at the bottom of the page. And I liked the post counts where they were. Actuall, I liked everything where it was but I guess no one cares about that either:)
    The forum descriptions should be toned down a bit. It takes a long time to reach the bottom.

    and...
    Can you put the info at the bottom of the text stick at the bottom of the post?

    [​IMG] I think 8 is a reasonable limit, no need to change that. And yes, I'm working on putting the info at the bottom.

    The latest new addition is No Double Posts! Only with a twist this time around - mods and admins can double post, and anyone with over 1000 words in their previous post can double post. This is only meant to be used for CS, so if we see it abused anywhere else, the limit will probably go up.

    Hmm, i'm still having problem with logging, i click on that link to log in, enter my login name and password and i get the message that tells me that i have succesfully logged in but when it returns me to the page i started from it says i am not logged in. Could it be related with cookies, i have some problems with them?

    [​IMG] Most likely. If you have IE, go to Tools/Internet Options/Privacy and set it to Accept All Cookies. That should help.
