I changed something with the forums settings.

A General Discussion forum for cars and other topics, and a great place to introduce yourself if you are new to NICO!

Its not a minor thing.Who notices it first, gets 2 free NICO stickers in the mail from me.

hint: it has to do with display settings.

For those of use that use Chromo or one of the other "styles", will we be able to notice it?

Did the links always change colors when your cursor was over top?

Going back to Chromo and giving up, I go the "you think you know your cars" one the other day.

Ok another hint:

Its only visible when you open a sub-forum and view the threads.Not inside the thread itself but looking into the sub-forum.

main reason I did it is, this is a win-win.

On an inactive forum it makes it appear "more" and gives viewers more opportunity to find something to post to.

On an active sub-forum, threads move so fast, its easy to miss a fresh one cuz its already on next page.More threads shown help with that as well.

Sorry less than.:oface

Depending how this works out, I might bump it even more ,if its doesnt affect us negatively in load up times and cost.Nowadays graphics from sigs and such are so prevalent they cause the most usage.

Showing more threads, should do little or nothing to the expense of running NICO, yet add value to the board.
