[QUOTE]I like the looks of these changes, but PLEASE don't change the layout. I popped over to the Catholic board and hate it.

[QUOTE]While y'all are jimmying with the board, how about improving the mobile interface, or at least give us the full keyboard.

My main concern was to improve all the features- The PMs, notifications, mentions, etc. Everything will be updated by May 16th and the glitches should all be worked out by then, including siggys. The design team is working on things as well.
Thanks!
