Couple of extensions:
1) Personal note to be added to 'My bookmarks' page to remind you why you bookmarked something.
2) Bookmarking of forum posts. It is pretty hard trying to find something and there are some quality posts.
Thanks!

I wished to see the history of my messages... atleast like... the number of messages that a user posted for each forum (% graph will be anyther step in it) Does this sounds silly ??

Hey Chris,
I was just reading a few bloggs the other day and I thought it would be nice if people could view my personal forum as being a blog... As such, would it be unfeasible, for whatever reasons, to have rss feeds [or similar] from people's personal forums.
I think it'd be a nice idea, although, depending on it's usage, it could cause strain on the servers.
Regards,
Brian Dela

Hi,
this is an old problem and perhaps there is a solution. I did not find any yet.
When I print an article in a lot of articles the right side gets cut off, so the text is missing.
I see this in Opera and IE.
Printing in landscape format sometimes helps, but is anoying.
Any solution?
Thanks a million, Dieter

Did u print the article in the print version. It works fine there. or did u attempt to print the article straight as it is (There is a good chance to miss the right side of the screen)??

Hello,
Can you put "Goto Page No" option to navigate to a particular page / post; so that we can directly navigate to desired page / post. It takes long time to navigate for particular post especially when net speed is really bad like i have.
Do you all agree with this with my suggestion?
Best regards,
Vilas Shewale

But how do you know which page number to type in?
Forums are always been added to, so what was on page 2 gets moved to page 3 eventually, then page 4, then page 5 etc. etc.

You can easily estimate how many pages back. I've wanted this many times.

If i have small idea that a particular post is after say 50 threads then i'll skip 2 pages after the current page. Right. Or if i know the last page searched for in last session, i can directly put the desired page number and can continue reading the posts after that. Right??? Instead of clicking Last and Prev again and again user can navigate throught pages easily by this option.
I would like to hear positive responce from you. Thank you.
Best regards,
Vilas Shewale

FYI Villy I am not an official Code Project employee, I just hang around here a lot and Chris lets me bug him on IM occasionaly. In other words the buck stops with Chris, all I can do is organise CPian disobedience marches and the like
I see your suggestion is liked by quite a few members. I still do not get the point of it though. Even on other forum systems that do have this functionality I have never used it. If other CPians though think it is useful and they will use it then great, more champagne for everyone.
Chris has plenty of improvements lined up for CP, each ordered by importance. Chris may or may not have put your suggestion on the list though I imagine if he has it is not near the top of that list. Also he would have responded (he does check this forum) if there was anything definite. What I am saying is be patient and that I have nothing to do with it really

This is a good suggestion Vilas. I've always wanted some means to skip 2-3 pages (even if the posts would keep moving a little depending on the activity at the moment).

I would like to be able to change the last-visited-date manually. The reason is: if I look on CP at all, then the last-visited-date is changed to the current date/time, even if I'm only wanting to check to see if someone has replied to one post.
When I'm short on time, this makes me have to choose between:
1)not checking the forum
2)taking the time to check all forums
3)not knowing which posts are new since the last time I checked everything.
Furthermore, if I just check in to view an article, the new forum posts are then counted as old because the last-visited-date is updated.
Of course, you would certainly want the last-visited-date to be automatically updated, but it would be nice to be able to set it yourself if you wanted to.

May be... last visited time/date can be made for eah forum(s) separate!

Sometimes words and code are not enough.
For example, I have been working a z-buffer algorithm
just for the hell of it. I almost got it working.
I rotate a brightly color cube and for the most
part my z-buffer algo. works. But when certain sides
of the cube face in different ways a scanline fails
to render and when the cube is rotate 180 degrees the
top side "bleeds" through.
If I could post a screen shot of these problems I feel
that someone expereinced in graphics programming would
take on look and say something like, "Oh you are
using floor() when you should be using ceiling() when
rounding your doubles" or something like that.
Does this make any sense?
Maybe if I could post a screen shot It would be more clear

The ![]() tag is disabled so that people can't put pr0n or really big images in their post. I wouldn't mind the former, but as a modem user the latter would tick me off.

It's possible to post images without the ![]() tag. I certainly won't abuse this capability though.

Well how would I post a small screen shot?

Well I don't know if I should tell you, as I don't want someone else to post something inappropriate. Would one of the forum admins tell me whether it's alright to tell?

(Obviosuly) it can be done but that particular loophole will probably get closed, so it's not something we encourage.
cheers,
