OMG.  I did not realize "Date" was clickable.  The blue text and grey  
background looked the same as all other text depending on the tilt of the  
screen on my laptop!

BTW, reading backwards is not the goal. LOL.  It is just a quick way to  
get to the end and browse through the list to assess how active an echo  
would be.

The Sychronet "sub-board" listing and it date-sortable Subject/message  
listing are a very useful way to judge an echos viability.  This Sychronet  
design is excellent.


ml>>> also, your square dog graphic is covering some of the text...

The image was just a decoration.  I reduced its size.  I think it is  
cooperating now.   I appreciate you pointing out the problem!

Likewise.  I left most of my raw html tools behind on an older pc. I  
didn't really need an html editor anymore when I embraced building sites  
and pages with CMS such as Wordpress over 10 years ago.  Today, when I  
would like to create a nice looking page, I regret not having the favorite  
editor I was using.  But Word to html is doable for an occassional simple  
info page or something.
