Two things - 1) I would like to second the suggestion that the compose message window have the same params as the thread message windows (ie - same font and text window width) 2) How about making the 'To:' and 'From:' words 'hot' so that clicking on them would send a private message to the person after the 'To:' or 'From:'... Thanks & keep up the good work! JohnnyH

How can I post a message to myself within a thread? All I can see how to do is "reply". Sometimes I just want to post a general post. Thanks Michelle

Jeff, I see a lot of people talking about how they would like to change their names, like after they been on for a while they see all those catchy handles and wish they had done that. ( myself included ) More often than not someone tells they to e-mail Jill, but I don't think most of them do. We are so grateful for SI we don't want to be a pain, or we embarrassed to ask for a name change, or supthin. Give some thought to how people could when they change their profile adopt a new handle "user name" that would tag their posts. Yet not really have to re-register them. Like maybe you could add a "user name" handle type thingy to the profile, options that would take it a step beyond changing the e-mail address. Thanx Jim

I didnt even know this forum thread existed till by accident I stumbled across it. So maybe what SI needs is some sort of master index or table of contents one can scroll through. (Maybe there is one and I just havent found it yet) To be honest like alot of members I spend most of my time on one forum and have my computer set up to take me to it immediately so maybe there could be a feature incorporated on each forum called SI news which would deal with SI features etc usefull or of interest to others. A dictionary of common used expressions like ROTFL would be helpfull to new members with instructions of how to get bold italix etc. I also think you folks should publish a book "THE BEST AND THE WORST OF SI" regards Walt Humphries
