I get along with the format OK, although I tend to use only the 'messages as posted' screen. I guess might have navigation problems if I tried to thoroughly search specific subjects. The few times I do an archive search it seems to work OK. The search does seem to search the message headers rather than the text bodies. Fair enough: Full text searches take a lot of computer resources. I guess that puts a burden on users to name their posts well and to stick to the subject. Fair enough.

Still on the fair enough tack; for people who want to post pictures, it seems fair enough that they provide their own picture links. Transmitting and storing pictures also takes a bunch of resources.

I wouldn't have known how to set up my own pictures with links until recently. I started developing a web page for my township library board, and it's really fairly easy. If I was motivated, I could send and store pictures on my own account. The few hits I'd get probably wouldn’t create any additional charges from by service provider. However, I haven't been so motivated, because I actually prefer the relative freedom from pictures enjoyed here. Some might observe that I’m all too eager to spend my thousand words instead.

My only suggestions is that sometimes I forget to change the posts to 'do not notify or display.' I can get e-mails from a year old thread. I also can't find a 'previous page' button on the massages as posted' screen. The site works just fine for me. I recognize that if I advocate putting on fancy features that require computer resources, then they have to be paid for, and usually by a bunch of web advertising stuff that I’d just as soon stay free of.

Dennis: The list boxes on the new page seem like a pretty good way to follow discussions of interest--as long as the subject stays the same I guess. I haven't actually tried to click on a title in one of the boxes, but I imagine I'd go right to the thread. Pretty good idea I think.
