Forum Layout

I've had a bit of a change of the forum order, to try and group things together a bit better.

If anyone has an idea for forum order, groups or a new forum section please let me know in here

Re: Forum Layout

Hi Ian,
Looks good... I have a couple of ideas regarding layout / content.
1) I make heavy use of the 'New Posts' section - I log in several times a day and use this to track current conversations. I find it really useful and a great way to stay in touch => my only suggestion would be to make this a little more obvious... not sure how??? maybe create a link in the forum section to 'Latest Posts' or something similar.
2) It might be useful to have a 'Useful Links' section where we could post links to other sites / content that we feel is particularly good. For instance, my local 'Aquarium Society' has an on-going series of very good articles by Lenny Lambi on Water, The Nitrogen Cycle, Alkanlinity, etc posted on their site. Whilst you can find similar information everywhere, I found these articles very well written and easy to understand, despite the fact he begins to cover some of the complex chemistry: GCAS.ORG - Fincinnati Articles
I'll also just take this opportunity to say what a great site this is / group of people. I visit many of the other well know sites like RC to learn more about this complex hobby but, as I said above, I find myself logging into Living Reefs several times a day to keep up with the latest news on Biff's 180 or Doc's big surprise Great stuff.. Thanks - j

I like the new layout Ian.

My only complaint,and one I've had since I started using this site,it the links to the ReefKeeping magazine wont let no one in there.It says we dont have permission.Is there any way we can fix that?
