How about changing to a better VB style?
Well, not a big deal but I do find NP, DNF and WHT 's customized VB layouts are more attractive and "pro" than ours. Sometimes a better looking forum does attract more recurrent visits.
Just don't know how many here agree with me.

I agree. This would be a good time, before IE7, to get the board ready for the big time.

I always thought the clean lines and subtle shades here were pro. As apposed to all those other pimped up forums.

Re: How about changing to a better VB style?
I actually changed the whole forum in February, from Simple Machines to VB...
If you remember what the forum looked like before, I think you'd let sit for a while.
One more month till the site is 1 year old...

If theres to be any resources thrown at this site, I'd ask that the speed is looked at first - it's starting to have periods of grinding to a halt again... I'm noticing it more often now.

Yes, speed is a big problem to me. Every time I read the posts, I always have to work on something else while I wait for the page to come up.
I use the "New Posts" button a lot, but I missed a lot of posts that I have not read. I don't have time to section by section to check all the unread posts, if I can just click on "New Posts" and find all the unread posts in the last 2 days that would be great.

Yes, the option to scan back a day or two would be useful. If you click Home sometimes you get a few more.
