  It would be cool if after the last post on each page, right before you post a reply, there was an "Active Topics" button. Sometimes when you are 2 or 3 pages into a thread, it would be nice not to hit the back button a couple of times, or scan up and hit Active Topics. Not a big deal.

  There are a few other special characters that would be very helpful for representing Hebrew as well. In a sense, it has been more difficult representing Hebrew than Greek in the old forum (I have used "ch" and "h" to represent cheth and he, but it can be confusing, and there isn't any good way in the old forum to distinguish between taw and teth). So these characters (which are the proper way to represent these consonants) should be added to the list:

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1e25/index.htm (this would be used to represent cheth)

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1e6d/index.htm (this would be used to represent teth)

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1E63/index.htm (this would be used to represent tsade)

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0294/index.htm (this would be used to represent 'aleph)

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/05D0/index.htm (Hebrew 'aleph, used to represent the Codex Sinaiticus)

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0295/index.htm (this would be used to represent `ayin)

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/1E2B/index.htm (this would be used to represent a kind of "h" in Babylonian and Hittite)

  All of these characters would have been useful at times in the past. And for the sake of convenience, the letters with macrons to represent certain Greek vowels (as mentioned above) can be found here:

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0113/index.htm

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/0112/index.htm

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/014D/index.htm

  http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/014C/index.htm

  I think that would be all that would be needed for representing both Greek and Hebrew. I hope this won't be too much trouble for you, this board is already so much more functional. :)
