AlfredSokol said: "This software looks great. Nice to see some change for the New Year. Happy New Year. :D"

Yoshimi said: "i dunno i like the software and stuff better on the new site, but i liked the home page ALOT better on the old one where it would scroll the latest posts and stuff...if you could get that to happen on here itd be awesoem...and also, what happened to all the forums? like penny stocks, long term, short term and so on...?? but yes this software is alot better my suggestion is to make the home page very very similiar to the old one cept with this fancy new software...hehe"

scottigee said: "^ Suggestion for '05 - can we get rid of that little page icon top left? || There should only be an icon if you chose one IMO"

HappyHarry said: "What does this icon look like?"

scottigee said: "it's right above the "What" in your post...here [IMG]http://www.superhonda.com/photopost/data/519/14884page.jpg[/IMG] for some reason, even if you select "No Icon" when composing your message it posts the first one; that stupid page."

HappyHarry said: "Oh. Now I see what which one."

Darren said: "its gone now."

scottigee said: "[QUOTE=ben]its gone now.[/QUOTE] Excellent!"

scottigee said: "Another suggestion.... When you hit the "New Posts" link it seems like the search criteria limits the results to only what has been posted since the start of the day in your time zone... or something restrictive like that. As a result, here I am at 7am on the west coast with no new posts! Can we edit the search criteria behind that link to include ALL posts sorted by date (latest last)? If that would yield too many results then maybe just all those posts since the user's last post. Anything to get me more/some results and make that link more useful. Thankie! :D"

scottigee said: "Thank you Mods! The "New Posts" feature is kicking ass now. And we have more and better forums to choose from on the front page! Sweet! [img]http://homepage.mac.com/merussell/iblog/B835531044/C1592678312/E36507186/Media/NapoleonDynamite.jpg[/img]"

scottigee said: "Every post should have a link to a yahoo finance page of the stock to which it pertains. If the forum code could somehow do this that would be sweet...but I doubt it would. So maybe everybody should just type in a link at the end of their post if they're starting a thread!
