Jim, great job on expanding the "In Reviews" on the home page to a list!
I think this is terrific for the casual viewers and even the lurkers. Something to grab their attention at first site and keep em here for a longer spell!
It just keeps getting better all the time! Thanks Jim.

I also added more reviews to the recent display lists inside the Reviews area and changed the "top read lists" so they reflect the top read reviews of the past 180 days (6 months).
Thanks!
Jim

Nice one Jim!
The new icons to show if a review is "In Box" or "Full Build" are a great idea.
All the best

Now all we need is a "Books" category and PvtParts can be commissioned to write that song!

Jim,
Great idea, I really like the new layout. But I think red plane icon is a bit confusing - at first I thought that the small airplane means plane kit review. Of course I quickly realised the true purpose of those icons, but I think something else would be better for "full build" review. I would rather see something like this picture I just prepared: .
What do you think?

Yep yep! This is a very nice touch! I too was confused on the AC icon.
