That the quick set of links were above and below the threads?
(Like a header and footer?)

Being a newbie here I apologize if its been discussed. Searching "menu" or "link" on this kind of forum would be very common and hard to discern similar subjects.

Two comments.

First, my vague memory is that the whole setup used to be much less visually logical. The blue in that bar now contrasts more than it used to.

And the links on the bottom of the page--the ones with TOS, Home, etc., seem to handle the perennial vBulletin/form logic problem (how to make areas that could be redundant not redundant, and logical) pretty well by making them concern HG, not so much the forum.

On the other hand, after several hundred days and more views than I'd like to count, I've settled into the HG forum's user interface like my second-best pair of sneakers.

I do agree that once you get used to one forum - like http://dslreports.com where I joined Sun Jan 26th 03, it is hard to adjust to others like here and the Drupal Forum. On DSLR I have over 14K posts so I am settled there!

On the VOIPo forum, I was a beta tester, so I go back to the 02-13-2007 date. I do plan to soak up what I can here, so I will visit often. VOIPo is not too different from this site layout, so I should adopt the "Don't worry be happy" outlook

Like http://forums.voipo.com I switched the order to show newest at the top.
(That will help.)
