I though I would suggest a few changes in the settings of the board for you to consider.

FROM THE OWNER LOG IN MAIN PAGE GO TO:

GENERAL FORUM SETTINGS PAGE

REVERSE THREADS - this box should be checked - it puts the latest thread at the top of the page instead of at the bottom.

THEN GO TO THE DISPLAY SETTINGS PAGE

UNDER ENABLE/DISABLE FEATURES -

ALWAYS QUOTE MESSAGE IN REPLY BOX - you should uncheck this box cause now every time someone wants to reply to a message they get the whole previous message in the post form which just has to be deleted before making their reply.

RELOCATE ACTIVE THREADS TO THE BEGINNING - I would uncheck this box - if it is checked what it does is every time somebody replies to a message regardless of how old it is - it relocates the whole thread to the top of message board and that gets kinda confusing as to which posts are recent.

UNDER POST MESSAGE LIMITS - I would recommend that you allow the maximum amount of characters in each of the three boxes

BYE THE WAY IF YOU GET A CHANGE DROP ON BY MY VENT, YELL AND ANGER BOARD where you can see just some of the possibilities that you can do as far as 'decorating' the voy boards - of course the above were just suggestions, by all means please do on yor board what you like and are comfortable with.
