oh boy...

First, a Hackers Forum is needed.

Second, I think a Drop Down list for time zones would be a good idea.

Third, a Hackers Forum is needed.

Fourth, give me a free full version;)

Fifth, I've seen a feature on another SQL back-end forum proggie that allows what they call a "sticky" post. It keeps a particular thread as the first displayed in a forum. I think this is a great feature because it would allow for announcements to be seen by everyone, as well as rules for posting in a particular forum.

Great Job. We will probably be buying REALLY soon if you don't take #4 to heart.

Well, 1 and 3 are easy - I'll do that in just a sec.

#2 could be done with templates. If you do it, let us know in the templates forum!

#4 - hehehe

#5 - announcements do appear as a post at the top of the forum. When we get round to posting some announcements, you'll see what I mean

John,
What I meant was like the "Welcome" topic you have here that has already drifted to the bottom. As a "sticky" post, it would always be at the top.

Another thing I wanted to suggest, and I'm probably teaching my grandmother to suck eggs here, is multi-license discounts and/or developer discounts and/or a sales commission program for web developers.

We do a little design on the side and this product would be perfect for a lot of sites I know.
We also have a small site that we give some development advice, free resources, etc, etc, etc on that gets about 1.5 mil hits/month.
I could really see recommending this to a lot of people and I sure would like to make some change off the deal :)

We will be looking at bulk discounts and affiliate programs / referal fees over the next few days once the dust has settled.

Thanks for the suggestions though.

John
