You already limit the number of characters - There's no reason to make it almost unusable as well.
Did you change something? Now, my sig is smaller than I want it. I'm going to go back and make it 9pt again.

Yes, I think Chris is playing around with the signature css. It seems to randomly change with the time of day

I know this has been suggested before - but I'm really wondering if this feature will likely be implemented in the near future? Or is it a lower priority? Basically just to be able to see the number of download requests for a file on your articles (wouldn't need to be publicly displayed - only to an article's author). You could enable it for all new articles only, and not worry about the articles that have already been posted. I think you already check that the user is logged in before serving the file, so a counter should be doable or not?

Yes, this is a fundamental peice of the puzzle and we have a developer assigned solely to this issue. The problem? 7 years of log files for around 15-20 machines, 12 logs a month for each machine, each log file between 3 and 7Gb.
We'll be parsing the logs to get accurate downloads for all files and then redoing the way downloads are served to ensure download counts stay accurate.

In huge threads, it is sometimes hard to see what post a reply is actually for. It would then be very hand with a link to parent. Please, pretty please, with sugar on top?

I am not entirely sure what that means. I'm guessing it's a colloquial expression.

Agh.. I can feel it slipping away.. damn. Well, it's gone.

"A pox on you" was once an expression of ill-will, deriving from the smallpox outbreaks of the 19th century.
But I only meant it as a joke

Or alternatively how about like Rediff Articles messageboards like in Iframes?
|
|
|
|

I am not familiar with that type of message board. Got a link?
|
|

|

How about a button which picks out a particular “linear thread” from a thread? By this I mean that you’d press a button on a particular message and it, its parent, its parent’s parent and so on are shown. This would enable you to follow a particular conversation from a thread.

Intereting and tricky.
I wonder what the SQL for that would look like.

this is suggestion for codeproject to create new forums like window services, additional .net components ... etc

Windows Services befits into C#, Visual Basic .NET and similarly the other topics listed right?

yes,

but, if codeproject have forum "WIndows Forms" , then why not forum on more important topic "Window Service". We can find lots of messages on "Window Service" in different of forums. But if there is forum on "WIndow Service", we can find all messages in one forum

The Who's Who at the Code Project page shows after a search only 10 entries,
and there is no indication how many matches at all, and no next page link (SeaMonkey 1.5a).
Also my profile shows as location Afgahnistan (first entry instead of not given).

Dear Chris,
I happen to be a fairly regular and usually happy visitor of your amazing site. Lately however, a quirky, or dare I say irritating behavior of me has come to my mind that is closely related to your site. Hereby I wish to inform you of said qirk.
Anytime SQL Stan bouces around on the left I refresh the page hoping to get rid of him.
It's ok when he bounces twice (maybe thrice on sundays and religous holidays), but permanently certainly exceeds my staying power on your fascinating site.
Please, if you can afford the time to think of a remedy, please do so. You would make a simple usually hapyp visitor very happy.
Yours truly.

You need not block them all; just block the inappropriate ones.
