It would be better if we could see the topic title more clearly in the actual window of the thread not above it. It's too small amongst all the other noise on the page, and should be larger and clearer to see, afterall it is the topic of discussion.

Also, the "post new thread", "reply to thread" and such links should be made more clearly, perhaps outside the window. You could be forgiven for not finding the links straight away. Perhaps a change of shape or colour of the link would be more appropiate?

Ditto re the "post new thread" and "reply to thread" -- I made 'em separate buttons with text links, too -- here's what I have added to my showthread template:

<P><A HREF="newreply.php3?action=newreply&threadid=$threadid"><IMG SRC="$replyclose" BORDER=2 ALT="Add a Reply to This Message Thread" ALIGN="LEFT"></a> <b><normalfont><A HREF="newreply.php3?action=newreply&threadid=$threadid">Add a Reply to This Thread</A></normalfont></b>

<P><A HREF="newthread.php3?action=newthread&forumid=$forumid"><IMG SRC="$newthreadimage" BORDER=2 ALT="Start a New Message Thread (Begin New Topic)" ALIGN="LEFT"></a> <b><normalfont><A HREF="newthread.php3?action=newthread&forumid=$forumid">Start a New Message Thread (Begin New Topic)</A></normalfont></b>
