They really could be improved:
A who's online page, where you can view each member that's online and what part of the board they are in/doing. It's fun and not really privacy invading.

An edit option..duh..

Some indication of which posts you have replied to. I hate having to remember which threads I written in. Other boards use indications like a dot over the icon if you have replied to the thread, so you can easier find your own topic. It's super useful.

Annnnnd posts that go more than one page should be better accessable. The best way is to make small numbers after the post name so you can jump to whatever page you want right from the message lits. Like
"Bob likes stuff" (pages 1,2,3...13) is how it would be set up, numbers links.

and fix the picture code or something...that's always crazy.

i agree with all of that but this one... i think when you reply it goes bold when someone else replys and rich might not have that much time on his hands...

AAAhhh Ok sorry, guess I missed out on that - Maybe it was never released in the UK? I'm quite a big fan of our newspaper cartoons, most of which are US, EG Peanuts, Perishers, Garfield, Marmaduke etc. I have heard of C&H, just can't say I've read it

I have been talking to Rich and there will indeed be Edit, Search buttons and the Post buttons things will be sorted out.

But after he has got back into the work routine...

Well, I'd like an extra 4x4 pixes for avatars - my usual avatar is just a bit too large!

I think... more female users, more inteligent polite new users, less infighting, and more patches! (Until everythings fixed obv )

Plus I think Kudos ratings are a kewl idea, just don't really like a lotta the ethos with RGT tho
