I realized that I was missing peoples posts because I was going directly to the last post that was shown in the right column. If there were three posts between the last time I logged on and and the last post I may not have ever seen them if I went straight to the most recent post. By doing it this way one will always see the list of posts.

Yes, but if you had clicked on the left, you wouldn't have missed anything. Now, when the front page comes up, the time and author of the last post is not displayed as before.

How about the time addition, is that a little bit better? I just want folk to got a little farther than just the last post.

OK I check IRV2 and Escapees and they have the original way so I changed it back.

My vote is to go back to the old new way. It took a computer illiterate like me a minute to figure it out, but once I did it was a breeze. The number one advantage was being able to see at a glance if a new post was up in any of the forums. OK, Now I go back and things are the same. Dave's messin with me!!

What's that thar sayin "If ain't broke don't
fix it" It's OK Dave, we'll come visit you on Sundays during visiting hours.......

I think I have the answer for you Dave. Click on this link or add it to the header as a link on the barthmobile.com/eve page.

New Since Last Visit

That link will allow you and every member to see new postings since there individual last visit. If it's added as a link on the header then nothing changes for the diehard's and it's giving extra functionality to every member.

If your not a member then it won't work.

If you click on "Find" on the header, "New since last visit" will appear.

Man, now I am feeling really dumb.. You are right that is a better idea than my changing the look. That's what I love about a Democracy...
