call for suggestions

this board has been enabled for a little of 5 weeks and i would like to get some feedback from users. please list some things you would like to see changed or added to the board.

this is not a christmas wish list, i have no plans on taking orders or granting any and all wishes. however, i cant think of everything and want this board to be as complete and enjoyable for all as much as possible. whether cosmetic or functional, i would like to know what your thinking.

simply reply to this post.

examples :

• more totorials on "x" "y" or "z"

My vote doesn't count but you get it anyway:

questions cut to size, ie so the entire message appears without having to slid to the left or right,,ie every message the size of the screeen but then i have only a 12 inche screen so that may make a difference.....

If you are having to use your bottom scrollbar (left to right), that usually means a rather huge picture has been posted that stretches the page to accomodate it.

It took some getting used to. What was the hardest for me was after posting trying to figure out how to get back to the forum to read other posts. DUH me finally figured it out. I usually hit and run when I am posting because I am so busy during the day with the other two sites. But this is the best no-nonsense, get the job done animal board on the net- and I appreciate having it here for resource and reference.

this might be a fixable issue, i will try out some code changes later.

1. A board similar to Kevins Room for the Cat people. Most at peiople don't know the dog people and I doubt if I posted there that alot of the cat folks would wee it.

2. Speedier screen changing when posting.

3. A date on the heading of a post along with or in leiu of the date and time of the last post. I'd like to know when the initial post was made without having to open the thread.

4. enable java and html...posting just isn't the same, especially when people hit you with competitions, etc.

Other than all that, the boards are great!

kevin's room is for all, not just droolers. cat people simply need to go there more often.

2. Speedier screen changing when posting.

you'll need to elaborate, like not showing the option of returning to the forum or topic, just force one?

btw., that screen is needed in case there is an error posting the message..those two options are clickable if you do not want to wait for the timeout.

3. A date on the heading of a post along with or in leiu of the date and time of the last post. I'd like to know when the initial post was made without having to open the thread.

really? why would that be more helpful than the last post time? (curious)

4. enable java and html...posting just isn't the same, especially when people hit you with competitions, etc.

html is available, simply uncheck the "Disable HTML in this post" checkbox when posting. also, you can set this for all of your future posts from your profile settings. javascript? nah....there is enought javascript builtin already

the html tags available on this board is listed here

...don't go to any non-pet boards This is a great place, and I've found it pretty easy to use, after a bit of adjustment.

how come when you login it says remember me if checked, but it doesn't work for me?
