Treacle,

The colour scheme does me fine, thanks.

The panic button was a joke but woul be cool to have if you want to make it happen.

The bottles of cloudy bay we owe you are adding up quick! And I suppose we could get Alex a cruz tawny !

I think we could have hidelines rather than rules in a locked sticky at the too of the tn area.

If some don't follow them then so what? But most regulars probably will which will make searching easier.

Does the software provide for a text only version of the site? I'm not sure how these things work but if it's something that just exists with no additional maintenance then that might be a better option for us sad and needy Blackberry people :wink:

I have often wordered this but have never actually tried decanting through anything other than my stainless steel filter.

I'm happy with 25 because I sometimes use my Blackberry so the shorter the pages the faster it loads. Equally happy to go with concensus.

KillerB,

When does Webmistress Treacle get home? We need urgent assistance to set-up user defined banners with a panic button that turns the whole screen into a spreadsheet with one click 8) (OK, so I copied that idea from somewhere else :roll: )

Agreed - I can supply a wide graphic with the words UK Pensions Forum in bold type - not sure if this would help everyone else but it would certainly help me when I'm in the office :lol:

Admin, It would be useful if you could give us a list of the easily configurable items on the standard software. I don't think anyone will want you to spend more time on this than is necessary so if we know what is easy perhaps it will avoid us asking for things which are not. I think what we have a...
