    Well, Kind Sir, this is a definite improvement, which I've enjoyed on another site, understanding-islam. From now on for new posts it looks like we'll be able to click on the blue square with the question mark in the "Originally Posted by" boxes to go back and see the original quote. One can now even jump threads (as is evident by the second quote above in my present post, if one knows the number, which you can make by quoting somebody in a thread and then cutting and pasting to the other in your own "edit" mode. (That's the best way I can word it right now.) This is a nice improvement. Or has this been around awhile? Seems new to me, but I have strange powers of observation which are often at variance with the calendar and clock, too.

    At the site I just mentioned, the administrators have the software set to lock each post after 48 hours. This is nice for the sake of thread continuity, but I don't like it when you can't go in and erase your post if nobody responds for a couple of months, and your name is left dangling there for months because there is no new activity on that particular sub-forum. And then the words of my dear Mama, "Fools' Names and Fools' faces always appear in public places," just make me cringe. :eekblue:

    But then, the other board has some real troublemakers and their behaviour has probably made this measure a necessity. I hope that sort of thing keeps well away from here.

    Anyhow, I like the new feature you introduced yesterday, if indeed it was yesterday when you introduced it. Well, at any rate, something's different or odd and at least this time it isn't me, I don't think.

    Thanks,

    Nirvy

    I even tried direct loading the links as above, no image, a 404 Not FOund Error message

    No bugs to report yet. Just wanted to say how much I'm enjoying the improvements! Sweet!

    Thanks, Brian.

    Thanks to you too, Nirvy. I hadn't noticed those changes until you pointed them out.

    I love this place.
