How are things WYSIWYG for posting?
Things look the same to me as far as posting.
The color isn't bad 
Private message info on each page is pretty convenient. |

I like the similar threads feature. Just not sure how well it's going to work in practice.

You can send PMs to more than one user at a time without using the buddy list now. |

I bet some people are going to like the Threaded and Hybrid thread options - that's pretty cool!

Ooooo, "Search This Thread"! That'll come in handy for some of the really big, long, involved threads that come around from time to time.

I like having the mouseover thingy back on when you run your mouse over the title of a thread, telling you the first post without having to click. At least, I think it's back - it was gone, wasn't it?

Yes. It was gone. This is a less server intensive way of doing it. |

I like being able to type ctrl-I to turn Italics on and off, ctrl-B for bold, etc. I'm used to doing that in Word so it's much easier and more natural for me than clicking the I or typing [ i ] and [ / i ].

Text links, and button watchamacallits -- legends? -- all over the place. Yay!
I like the overall look -- nice and clean and streamlined. |

* I like the visual separation of IMPORTANT threads from the other threads in the forum.
* I like that locked threads do not have a line through the title.

* I like the use of YESTERDAY and TODAY, instead of just the date, to indicate the last posting date to a thread.
