That was another one of the comments I was going to make. In Self Search, I want to see WHO I made "reply #57" TO in a particular thread! And I do hope that when we visit a thread we've been pinged to and read that reply PLUS any others AFTER it that are made to us, that in Self Search ALL of them will show "visited", so that we don't think we have yet another NEW message we haven't read. (Am I being clear?! I'm not too sure I'd understand what I'm talking about if I didn't already know!)

AND......while we are in the "new look", why are the "options" in the reply below the name of the poster so much more prominent than the NAME of the poster replying?

The first part is something that John's toying with including in the final version. IMHO, he can bury it.

The remainder is a function of the current placeholder program, and is addressed by the self-search links at the start of this thread. I'd rather see that go live, but failing that, I'd like a return to the old self-search.

There is a workaround that seems to work; head to any other "Latest" page (either the latest posts or latest replies), pull down the "Articles+replies", type "to:Billie" (sans the quotes) in the search box, and click Search. That'll get you the "to" half of self-search, and ignore the "all" flags.
