You guys in other parts of the world have a several-hour head start on us at seeing this new forum in action, so please let us know any other problems you see.

I'm sure we will get the smilies fixed so they work.

I'm not sure what that little flame icon means, but it appears that it means this is a "hot" topic because it has over X number of views. I don't really see any reason for that; do you? Maybe that should be disabled.

Also, note that this forum upgrade has restored a feature that was lost during the last upgrade: Now your reply will again include the name of the user you are replying to. Therefore, now it is important to do your reply directly to the post you are specifically replying to. That will also help to keep the threads more orderly for people who read in threaded mode, as well as more understandable for those who read in flat mode (which I think is most people).
