New design ! Cool, I like it !

[MarkG]

can you explain that a bit more?

[cousLee]

would love too.
As an example, 1 LeeSt turn tracking thread is 2 pages long. since page 1 is not needed, could page 1 be archived?

[MarkG]

hmmm no.....
I can only archive an entire thread, not a part of it

[cousLee]

oh well, it was thought. Thanks for responding Markos.

inna nutshell, what I don't like:
1> not being able to view the thread while I make a post.
2> after posting, it defaults back to page one.
3> more than one page.

I think the icon are great.
I like the new "look".

just my thoughts.

cousLee,

When replying, there is a link to the full post that, when clicked on, opens a new browser window with the whole thread in it.

I like this much better, as I have a slow connection at home, and this saves (a lot of) bandwidth. Moreover, most of the times when I post I don't need to look at what was there previously.

Markos,

I'm in agreement with cousLee, here.

I would like to see the thread that I am replying to, while I'm replying.

I would like to see the latest page be the default page displayed for both Title link clicking as well as return after posting.

Otherwise, I like it.

JAMiAM, good point with showing the last page by default.

But I maintain that not loading the thread when replying is a good thing, for people like me who have a slow net connection. And remember that the full text is only a click away.

The 1 click to the thread text while responding I agree is good. The Default after responding to return to the first page is bad.

Opening the full thread in a separate window while you're posting has a MAJOR advantage to me:

it helps intercept X-posting!

If you refresh the 2nd window before submitting your reply, you can che for last minute postings which make your one obsolete!
(you won't get me anymore, swift swiss )

[cousLee]

I can buy that. Even though now I have an extra click, another page load, another browser (which i could do before if i needed to avoid x-posting ) to deal with, and another click to close that one. But if the swinging swiss is happy, then i can live with the changes.
And if the default was switched, then that would take care of the other concern.
