Chris,
I think you should give in here. I do not totally agree with Pauls comparison with the Article section given that it is basically MS implementation that address XML. But we love coming here vs the other sites. I think many should go look to the others sites such as TopXML and XMLPitstop and many will not, but that is the price you pay for having a forum structure people like.

Chris,
I have a suggestion for the site. It would be nice if when a user is logging in and they are not on the main page that they then don't get redirected to the main page, but to stay at the page they were at when they logged in. Does this make sense, I have been up for quite a while, had two Statistics exams today and am a little drained

No it isn't 
I know what the guy means. Sometimes I delete all my cookies and I have to re-login to CP. I often though forget and reply to a post. It then tells me to login. So I login and instead of going back to the post I was replying to, it goes to the main page.
Unfortunatley, while it is not THAT difficult to implement this kind of functionality, it is a pain.

Paul,
I was thinking, in the form area where you have the e-mail address and password, you could place a hidden field that would be populated when the page loads, this would transfer when the user logs in and you would just need to check for a value in that field and re-transfer the user back to that page. Maybe this sounds easier than done, many things are that way.

Best way to do it is to use the querystring.
But you have to ensure your site can handle just being redirected like that. You may have form data which gets lost on the trip to the login form.
There are lots of little things you have to ensure before implementing this kind of thing.

I know, there are always, always little things that tend to get in the way of a nice idea.

Chris,
Just wanted to say thanks, I just saw that you added the login feature to kick you back to the page you were on instead of the main page. Good Job!

Sorry if this is a repeat, but
Could you set up the "browse users" thing to list off only
folks with pics?
I know. I'm a sicko... But still...
Thanks!

now i again found people discussing replyes to my programming question and i not know about it - receiving direct replyes only
so i wanted to search suggestion forums because
i think i already (strongly) suggested possibility to get
- all-replyes into "my thread"
- check any thread to get all its replyes, doesn't matter i'm author or not
& not necessary to get them full, mail notification about by-actual-logic-not-sent can be enought if is problem with advertisment access
(((& can be replyes (send after 24/48 hours from main thread start) send per-day all new-only together if is problem with too much mails)))
but i started to search for my mark (t!)
to not send it again and again
it searched for t%21 (its problem how handles) and found something-quite-nothing without searched inside
second case when i already speaking abuout search:
can be nice to be able search in members for more than their name
(((and when i starte about notification: old known: multiple author article-comments notification fails)))
sorry, i'm repeating
t!

Many, MANY people have requested the 'notify me when a thread is replied to' feature, and the only thing that is holding me back is
a) Time
b) Server considerations.
We have 30,000 members and 3000 discussions. Let's say 10% of people subscribed to a dozen active boards (very conservative numbers).
That's 36,000 emails a day (it would have to be at most a daily digest). Considering the newsletter itself is taking about a day to process, it means the email server would be swamped.
Solution: more hardware -> more money + time
So - it's gonna happen - but for it to happen we have to get other things in place (like our VS.NET store) so we have the resources and time to go for it.

when we already speaking about mail notifications:
1.
now i got mail about reply to anonymous new-thead but no mail about that question
anonymous are filtered?
2.
why this has email-author case and mail inside is wrong?
http://www.codeproject.com/internet/xymailclient.asp?forumid=2646&select=85536&tid=85513#xx85536xx
this is already ok (without email-author)
http://www.codeproject.com/internet/xymailclient.asp?forumid=2646&select=125187&tid=85513#xx125187xx
and it anonymous article? (this are author's replyes)
(his profile was deleted?)

Let´s assume that I´ve an article of a game, written in C# that uses GDI+. In which section should I post it ? Games ? C# ? GDI+ ?

I think C# is better place,because another parts refer to VC++,but the last desicion is depend on CP editors

C# for the moment. The C# section is going to be split out like the MFC section to make it easier to find stuff, so I'll add a Multimedia/GDI+ section within the C# umbrella.
