First, you guys have done a great job in such a short time. I know these are pretty niggling items, and please don't let them distract from the fact that I think you've put together the basis of a great site.

Anyway, a few thoughts:

1) On Opera 8.0, "remember me" doesn't seem to work. I'm not deleting cookies on exit, and I don't have this problem with other sites.

2) Logging in doesn't get me to the logged-in version of the front page, and even re-loading doesn't always do it. If I open it in a new window, it does. (Prob. Opera, though.)

3) I'm probably just missing it, but is there a link from the front page to the forum top page? I see the most recent list at the bottom of the page and the quick links item once I've logged in, but mothing to the forum home page.

4) The navigation hierarchy at the top of the page breaks down between the forums and the front page. When you're in the forums, the "Badger & Blade" link takes you to the forum top, not the home page. But on the home page it's no longer a link & doesn't take you to the forums. How about making the B&B always go to the home page and adding a > Forums level?

5) Similar to 4, the big B&B link at the top of every page also takes you to the forum top if you're in the forums, but just reloads the home page from the home page.

Keep up the great work! (But get some sleep, too, OK?)

Hey Dave,

We love niggling items, they go right to ease of use, and user comfort on the site, which is extremely important.

1 & 2: I'm going to have to look into that for you.

3, 4 & 5: Everything is disjointed at the moment, but I'll be working on tying it all together and making the navigation easier today. :smile:
