Improvements:

Word wrap!!!!
much more difficult to cause duplicate postings
it's prettier!
it's in pages now! (some of you silly dial-up people didn't like the 400k table :)
threads are order by the date that they've been last replied to.
remembers you handle if you want it to.

Things that aren't done yet(todo):

no html tag support
no customization by user setting
(in the future things like how threads are displayed, etc... will be user controlled)
no searching

I suggestions/feedback is still welcome and if you encounter any problems with the new board please let me know as soon as possible.

Just one point: on the old board, the only way we had of telling whether we'd read a posting or not was whether the link had changed colour. Now both visited and unvisited links seem to be the same colour.

Chase: could you please either save the read/unread status, or make visited/unvisited links different colours?
