Hi everyone,

Made a few more quick enhancements to the forums tonight:

- Smileys!!! When making a post, you'll see a list of smileys on the left. Just click on one to insert into your post.
:bigsmile: :laugh: :noway: :flowerforyou:

- Quotes: next to each post in a topic is a "quote" link. Click on it, and you can create a post which quotes a previous post, making it easier for people to know which post your reply refers to.

- Editing capabilities: after you've made a post, you have up to 1 hour during which you can edit your post. After one hour, posts are no longer editable.

Let me know if you have any questions about the new features.

Thanks!
Mike

    Wow! cool. I think I'll wait to try to use the "quote". Not too sure what that does - or how to use it. But I :heart: the :tongue:

    And ! The edit is great. I know I'm not the only-est one who posts and then goes "Oh, crikey!!"

    You're the bestest, Mike. We are forever indebted to you and your dedication.

    Very cool! I gather you are coding the forum from scratch? What language are you using, if I may ask?

    [Edit] The editing feature is excellent!

    Thanks Mike. Just curious. Was born in Long Beach at the other end. Don't live there now, though. Was curious about the time stamp.
