A quicker change is to paste the link, convert it, and edit the 1 text. My 1 beats your 2!

Could the row of formatting buttons on message posts have their foreground color explicitly specified?
I ask this because I use an inverted color scheme, where buttons have a dark blue background and white text, and it appears that it's causing the formatting buttons to be invisible

The bit in the Lounge subject where it says: "No programming questions please" needs to be in big, size 72, colourful, bolded, flashing, possible spelled out by naked women font. I just think there are some people out there you're just not reaching 
Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular.

Maybe the Lounge "Submit" button should actually read "I declare that this post is not a programming question, and allow Bob's Heavies to come over and teach me a Hard Lesson if it is"
Or it should popup a javascript alert after you click it, but before it posts back saying:
"Is this a programming question?"
[Yes] [No]
Because nobody ever reads message boxes, most people will just click "Yes", and we can stick the post in some "General Programming Questions" forum instead

 The General Programming forums are going to have a message saying "If this is NOT Programming related, please post this in the Lounge."

And you think in a community of mostly guys the programming question posters' would actually read what these naked women were spelling out?

Well they would probably forget any programming question they had...

Is there an RSS feed for new articles on CodeProject.com?

Yes. Take a quick look at the homepage.

Hi all,
See Levent S. 's thread in here: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/csppleds.asp#xx614311xx
I think his idea will be great...
|
|
|
|
|
That link didnt work for me, but I know what he is talking about, and for those who don't want to go searching, I'll explain.
Levent's suggestion was the ability to create a "Subscription to your favorite author" of sorts, so that you could be notified by codeproject when your favorite author(s) post new articles, and or make modifications to existing articles. I think this would be Great, because there are some really great Article Writers on Code Project.
Chris? How about it?

The forum search engine doesn't show us how many hits you've got. That means unknown Next-clicks...

Does knowing you have 100 or 300 or 50 hits make a difference? I wrestled with this while writing the scripts. I can add it back and incur a slight perf hit if necessary.

Hm,a hit counter may not be necessary, but perhaps if you could make it show Page 1/n where n is total pages. You do show which page I'm on, but you could add how many is left? Understand my point?

I think it would be cool to have the ability to bookmark threads. Sometimes a question is asked that I really like or a thread has some good info that I want to reference back to later to digest it all. It would be cool if you could add these to a special Forum Threads section in My Bookmarks. Of course we all have the ability to bookmark through IE but they become a pain to manage after a while.

Absolutely! This would be very nice.

Many times a post becomes too large because the person wants to include some code to illustrate his/her point (or question).
Just like emails, where you can attach a file to contain extra information, if such a feature could be added to CodeProject when someone posts a message, that would leave the message itself clean, clear and uncluttered from code. Then clicking on the attached file, the reader could then see the code the person posted.
It doesn't have to be code; it could be screen shots or just anything extra that could assist with what the poster is talking about.

you can do this as long as the poster has somewhere to upload the files too. with so many people using the forums, a HUGE amount of disk space would be required to save the uploads if they were to be uploaded to CP.

The trick is that if someone uploads something illegal or inappropriate then we may be held accountable.

Damn right. I don't think Bob wants to be next on the RIAAs hitlist somehow, and I somehow think it would cause you no end of headaches.
Plus it would probably send your bandwidth bill skyrocketing.
