Hey guys,
Not sure if this is the right place for this but I thought I would mention it. One of the "features", I guess you would call it on the TBN site that I really like is that when you can log in you can just look at the latest posts since you last logged in. Can you do that here? Also, I found on the "other" site that you all moved away from that there was no way to search for anything, unless I missed it! Do you have a way to search on this site? By the way my wife tells me I am blind so I could of missed it.
Thanks for listening, David ;D

You can click the last 100 post link at the bottom. It shows all new posts in descending order. Not the greatest since it grabs all threads but, it does work.
And, if you look under the big CTW banner at the top you see a menu of links. The 3rd one over is search.

Nice selection HarryG You know the "rules" about suggestions for site improvement Right? What were you thinking? Sounds an awful lot like work, what's in it for me? Perhaps talk to Matthew (FLICK) he likes to use this one - allot. There are 16 Smilies available for modification, what would be your suggestion to replace them with? Be specific. For example: = = Etc. Anyone have any links to a wider selection? Larry

Larry I just added a hack code so we can upload as many smilies as we want... When you post you will see a box to the left... I can fill that sucker up with all kinds of crap. If you want smiles post a list of http images and I will update the code to include them....

At the risk of being banned for suggesting improvements, I have a suggestion. I subscribe to a lot of forums, and all of the ones with large memberships use forum software called vBulletin. It's what TBN uses, for instance. If you do a google search for "vbulletin hosting" you'll see that packages start around $5/month. A lot of the forums I'm on do fundraising drives, or get members to take turns sponsoring a month. That and google adwords apparently covers the cost.
It's something to think about. What happens to a lot of sites is that by the time they realize they've outgrown proboards, there is so much content online that migrating everything is almost an impossible job. If you look at the archives of both CTOA and TBN, they've both gone through migrations where they effectively tossed everything before a certain date. Why not start out where you'd like to end up?
If current trends continue, in a few years everything will be manufactured in China. By then, the term "Chinese Tractor" will be redundant, like saying "tree wood" or "water ice." CTW needs to be prepared for this growth!
