Our new forum is now in place!

There are many little changes that you will notice. From different looks, to small functions.

Here are some of greater note:

New PM Inbox
If you go to your private message area, you will be able to delete multiple messages and see of the first lines of your messages and then you can click on it and view the whole thing.

E-Mail Thread to a Friend
On each thread, you can now in a few seconds, send whoever you want, a link to that thread.

Print Thread
When you view a thread, you will now see Print Thread, near the top. This will give you a more printer friendly version.

Cookie Improvements
We now have made it, thanks to my friend Tom, so that you will stay logged in for a period of time, instead of having to login every time you come to the site.

Also, I realize that the buttons are off a but... I'll be working on that.

Thanks.

Yeah I like that. Because it's cleaned up the Private Message box a lot.

That's cool too.

I also like the "Next Thread" and "Prev Thread" links at the bottom of each page when you're reading a thread. It kind of sucked to do the extra click when you know the next thread you want to read is one up or one down from the thread you're currently at.

Although I admit, I kind of miss those arrows at the front forum page that let you let get to the last post in the latest thread in a forum and the arrows that let you get to the last post in the threads in an individual board.

But overall, good job, Patrick.

When you reply to a topic does it send you to the right page now instead of just the firstp age of the thread?
