This is for the administrators:

Would it be possible to put tabs at the bottom of the pages in the forum so you don't have to scroll all the way back up to the top in order to return to the home page?  I know I could just use the browsers back button but then the post you just read doesn't show up as read when you return.  Most of the other sites I visit have that feature so I was just wondering..........though this isn't really an important message.

That would be a nice addition.  I just checked the options I have and there's nothing there.  I'm pretty sure it's the way the wowbb software is and we will not be able to change it.  Sorry.
Ken might know differently.

No, Mike is right on this one. I can send suggestions to see if they'll consider adding features but I haven't found them to be too customer friendly for the most part. If we can find the right software I'd be willing to buy it and move the whole thing to a godaddy account. The only suggestion I would make Stephen is to use the trick I use. I right click the tread and open in a new page or tab, then when I'm done I X out of the page and I'm back where I started.

I use Mozilla Firefox with mouse gestures.  I do a right button press and slide the mouse to the left about a 1/4" and it backs the browser up to the previous page.

You can right click in IE and get a sub menu with a back prompt.  That still leaves the post unread when you return to the previous page.  Oh well, I'll live with it.  I have for all of this time.:)

Stephen, look at it like our trucks; old school but beautiful!!:D If you find some good bulliten software out there that isn't an arm and a leg let me know. As I stated earlier, Paul and I talked about trying to come up with an alternative. This board is great when it works but when it goes down they don't seem to be concerned too much about getting it back up. If you want to see what we're dealing with, go to wow board and take a gander at the "who we are section". The pictures pretty much tell the story. Looks like a group of aged skate boarders to me!:X I will say though it was the easiest way for me to get something going and I'm blessed to have knowledgable people like you on board to help. Ken
