I like that idea and will see if I can get it labeled in such a way.

And yesterday I modified the sites main template. Now Open Forum on the masthead takes you here. Before, in the same spot, was Old Forum. I moved that to the left-hand index under Forums in general.

Meanwhile, that opened up space to put our Great Links link on the masthead (where it really needed to be since there are around 3000 links in total and there are many good ones.)

So, when a new sailor comes aboard, the traffic will mostly be directed to this Forum by default.

Thanks,

Rick
