I've gotten very used to the 'latest posts' link at the bottom of each pages of posts/replies.
I've not been in for a bit, but I really notice that it's gone.

The top link is not nearly as useful to me.
Any chance it's coming back?

Mike,
I am making a lot of changes to the site navigation so yes that might happen. In the meantime I did ad an up-arrow link that shoots you back up to the top of the page when you are at the very bottom.

Thanks for the up arrow link. The office bought me a new lap top (which rocks) so I can work from home and I am having a world of trouble getting used to the touch pad. The arrow is really handy, esp. in long threads.

Thanks for pointing out the LATEST POST link.
I hadn't noticed it.

I've really got to open my eyes a bit more. :-) :-) :-)

Quoted Text

i just have the latest link page bookmarked as my link to armorama.


But this will require you to go back to the bookmarks every time to get back to the latest posts page.

My point is that the latest posts link at the bottom of the page was a very useful thing.
Unless the coding or computing power required to keep it there is prohibitive, I vote for it's swift return.

The top button works, bringing the left side latest posts link back into view, but I prefer the old bottom of the page version.
