The "Comments" link, at the least, does not belong at the top left.
I don't like the Keywords above the forums and other sidebars. It pushes the breaking news down too far.
I liked the title bar the way it was. It gave the site an immediately recognizable look.
That's enough for a start.
Well I just set here in wonderment the undertaken John had to get so much to function and each poster page and other things.
I know John is still working on things and tweaking many request that are possible.
So it is in true admiration for this exciting project!
