    Hey Denny -- any way you can make the link with the directory/thread info bigger and brighter?

    The "TOP" links in the upper left of each post work well, but the button in the bottom right of the page (to the right of the Quick Navigation drop-down) don't seem do anything...

    yes that's better -- could be a little bolder -- it just kind of gets hidden by the banner, but now I can at least see it to navigate around the site.

    It's bold now, and I bumped the banner down 10px so the breadcrumb stands out a little more.

    (remember guys, we're here to help make this site the way you want)

    I was actually talking about the font/links above the banner.

    Thanks Denny.

    On a related note, the only time I find navigation to be awkward is after making a post or reading the final post in a thread. It would be nice if there was a way to get back to the main Blazer page with a single click, rather than finding a TOP button and using the navigation links under the banner. The "Quick Navigation" menu currently seems to be anything but -- I would have to scroll through pages and pages of forums to find one in particular. Is there a way to quickly get back to the forum from the bottom of a thread? If not, could the navigation links that currently live at the top of the page also be placed at the bottom of threads, just above the "Thread Information" box?

    I was working on something like that already. It wasn't a quick thing to add, though it should be. I'll get it done though.

    Ugh. One thing I liked about S2, was that it ran more smoothly than that "other board". It no longer does. The lagginess is becoming real annoying.

    Looks great, no worries here. Just not a fan of the image system.
