Can I make a suggestion that stickys perhaps after a suitable period of time are taken down or added to an FAQ if appropriate.

I find personally that the first four lines of the forum looking unchanged day to day to the casual glance may perhaps aid to an impression to to passing trade of forum inactivity.

Nothing more attention getting than the top line changing or moving down one or three or back up etc etc.

Opinions please?

eg:

"FOUR HALIFAX THROTTLE BOXES DISCOVERED MINT AND BOXED"

Appologies to Cees.

;-)

Good idea, I'm going to leave the welcome sticky but the rest have been moved to Forum news.

Thanks Scott!
As someone who keeps a low profile on my 'wix window', when I am at work, it will ease the anticipation anxiety , no longer having to scoll through the first 4 posts, to get to the new stuff....
:lol: 8)

If you're getting yourself concerned about scrolling for new posts, (and if you're using Internet Explorer try this:

Go to this URL: http://warbirdinformationexchange.org/phpBB2/search.php?search_id=newposts.

When you are there, open the "Favorites" on you're browser's side then click "add favorites." Now here's the trick. When it asks for a name, I called mine Wixnew. You could use that or something even faster. Then whenever you have a browser up, just type in wixnew and it should go right to a page with the latest stuff.

I use Mozilla Firefox, with one tab open to the company's website(which I work on), and another open to the wix when I happen to be browsing from work.
