To answer Brian's question regarding email functionality. If you would 
like to follow a topic in the forum there is a "subscribe" button on the 
top right above the authors name. If you click this it will email you 
when the thread gets a reply. This is especially handy if you have 
posted a question or need of help you will be notified as soon as you 
get a reply without having to be on the forum. I am working on the 
contrast. I like the layout but admittedly it could be much easier to read.
I do not want to take away from CORSA as a member myself I want it to 
survive. I will find a way to make this forum helpful and not hurtful to 
CORSA.
Thanks,
Scott

Speed is good, a little more wasted space at the top than I'd like, but 
*way* better than most.  "View active topics" is a great idea.  I'd up 
the contrast on the buttons somewhat.

Unless you set up the e-mail functionality, it still doesn't replace an 
e-mail forum, tho.

One semi-big issue - the classifieds will compete with the CORSA 
classifieds.

Also, you should set some goals - part of the CORSA presence?  Replace 
other forums?  Yet another forum?  Target audience?  Member restrictions?

Ok, I've got the forum up and running. Let me know what you think of it.
Also I have a place where we can hash and rehash the LM vs EM debate
with an ongoing poll with some tangible results..it's all if fun of
course ;)
