I agree with the main message area being too small. It should be widened. Also, why are the "Latest VJ member approvals" (right hand column) showing up on every page now?

    Captain, are we able to have the who's online list appear in the individual forums the way it used to instead of only on the main page?

  There's a filter to change to sort by content, posts etc.

 

  I never really looked closely at the old list. Was it showing something different?

am I missing it or when looking at unread threads is there a spot that shows a thread is already locked?  If the thread makes it to the front page for the "popular thread" option can we show a locked thread there or remove it from there if it's been moved/deleted?

 

Also it's really hard to tell when just looking around the forum which threads are new.  The topic is bold, but the folder is grey.  When I've posted I notice in the "unread threads" is a star, but normally it just makes the folder look bold.  Maybe carry the star forward into the normal forum view and make the folder bold for unread thread, not just the topic?

  I see the little pad lock to the left of the topic title, and when moving the cursor over it, it says 'this topic is locked'. For me it's no different if the topic is read or unread.

My apologies in advance for a "double post." I did not see this thread. I just posted this in the "old" bug thread, but maybe it belongs here. Mods, please remove the wrong duplicate.  Salamat!
