All the more impressive for that. :)
Re: the Therapy? Home link, I agree, but maybe it should be at the top somewhere? Intuitively, the big ‘THERAPY?’ Logo in the top left seems the likely place for it (especially since the link that IS there just redirects to the link that’s immediately below it). :)
On the discussion view, does the ‘delete this reply’ button work just like the ‘hide thread’ button? Or is it some moderator shenannigans that doesn’t work for mere mortals? At the moment I’m afraid to press it… :)

I dunno, it works for me but I’m assuming René has disabled it for you. Just you.

by the way. rene did you write the yellowtopia script? becuase i have never ehared of yellowtopia before and when i go to its homesite theres nothing on there only a splash page.
if so will it be available for people to use anytime? i have some uses i could put it to.
this could be the start in a change of the way the typical web forum is, now that ive got used to this i went to another forum that has the “old” sort of workings and i noticed it was shitty compared to this.

Misanthropologist, I agree it might be better to at least put that one link to the T? site on top, but I haven’t found a solution that doesn’t take up any extra space I’m happy with yet. Will do something about this soon. The way the linked logo now works is wrong, so thanks for bringing that my attention. Will fix that.
Oopsie! You weren’t supposed to the see the delete post button. It only actually worked for moderators though, so no harm was done. It’s now only displayed for moderators.
Yes, grant, I’ve developed these message boards from scratch. Code, design, the lot. Yellowtopia is the business name I’m going to use, but there’s nothing on the site yet except for the logo, as you’ve spotted. The plan is to offer these message boards to other people for use on their sites as a hosted application for a monthly fee, with a limited version offered for free.

It means that he changed his screen name in the last 30 days.
If you hover over the icon/his username you will see a tooltip with his old screen name and the date he changed it.

To be fair, this is true for everything except the excellent Prototype and script.aculo.us JavaScript libraries.
