Rearranged

I just rearranged the forum's sidebar. I moved the "Recent Posts" section to the top and deleted entirely the "Top Posters" section.

Comments?

Complaints?

Look at the sidebar to your right -- is there any other section we can dump? I like simple. I think it's better.

With that advice I de-emphasized the admins and the categories widgets. I didn't delete them, though.

Can you affect the top menu? I find that, as on every other site like this, I tend to bookmark the link that gives me the most recent posts. On this site, my link of choice is the on that lists all topics across all categories, where the system flags topics with new activity. I would rather use the recent posts page, but that seems to remove all formatting, which messes up quoting and stuff.

Yeah, I like do that kind of thing too but I don't think it's possible to change the top links here, dammit. There are some "hack your forum" topics here that I'll look into, Tomo.
