I'm not sure if that has been discussed, but is there a way in my profile to display the poster and their avatar on the left instead of on the right? With some of the sigs people have, it makes it hard to see who is posting what sometimes.

If not discussed on the forum, we mods and admins certainly discussed it. The answer is no, the board software does not allow that, YET. I am not sure if we proposed a mod (ification) or not to the software provider, but we will at some point do so.

All the various forums I'm on use vBulletin and I guess I've just gotten used to that. These screens can be a bit busy!

This software was designed in the U.K., where they drive on the wrong side of the road. (If you note, the only language permissible on this forum is British English!) So, when we first set up the software we asked Nevervana if there was a way to drive our avatars on the correct (left) side of the road. He looked and came back and said it appeared to be embedded in the software. But, as Cobradav says, we want to take it up with the designers because having the avatar on the left side would be so much easier for us.

Malibu, i completely agree. Right now I have the avatars on the left finally, but I had to turn my monitor over to do it. Now if I could just figure out how to consistently read upside town, right to left! :)

That was too funny, man. I like that one.

:idea: Try using the mirror. I do and it helps. No more of those acrobatic seating positions.

That was following the advice of P.M. Francis Urquhart, on a common European language, which "... as a matter of history, the proper language is English". (The Final Cut). Classic!
