Default A suggestion to the new site design

First of all, thanks to all the Mods and designers that make this site happen!

Second, if I may, I'd like to make a suggestion: I really like this new blue look of the site but I find that there's something missing... When we are navigating a theread, scrolling down to read the posts, sometimes we get really really far away from the "buutons" on the top of the page. I mean, that's no biggie if the thread is short, it's a matter or scrolling up again and that's it. But when the thread is very long, though within one page, it is quite unconfortable to scroll up again, I mean, maybe I'm the lazy one and don't want to execise my fingers but I think that a copy of the "buttons" - if in a different version - on the botom of the page would be helpful when concerning the navigation of the site.

Just a suggestion...

Once again, thanks for a wonderful job!

If you've read to the bottom of the thread and its last post, then you can scroll just a bit further and you can click the word "Top" to take you immediately back to the top of the page.

Oh dear... Now that was stupid! Thanks, ByronTodd... I'm no longer here... But, Hey... I guess it means that, despite being unatemptive, I care!

Or, using your usercp, select the options so that the latest post comes first. Thus, you scroll down to start reading wherever you last left off and then scroll up as you go. When you're done, you're at the top.

It is also possible to get to the top of the page, regardless where on the page you are, simply by hitting "home" on your keyboard.

+1 me too. Nothing is as fast as hitting the home key.

Yup. Nothing hits home faster.
