Okay this a real small thing Mishy. Not real important by any means.

The "Previous" and "Next" links on the forum pages are odd to me. They seem to work backwards. By clicking previous I'm taken to an newer topic.

I see on a lot of boards the links read "Next Older Topic" and "Next Newer Topic". That makes it much more user friendly.

Just a thought. Thanks!

Buzz,

I just tested that out on this forum because I'd never used them before and they worked just fine :confused:

Yeah, I see what Buzz means. To me "next" would mean to go to the next thread down the line, or next older thread. "Previous" to me would me a theard that I just came from, or one just above the thread I'm in. I guess us Oregonians think alike...weird. :eek:

Hell we're all backwards up here Junky! :D

Yeah, they work fine Mishy. I didn't mean there was a problem with them. More of a user interface thing.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough. . . .

What would you think about changing "Previous" to "Next Newest Topic" and changing "Next" to "Next Older Topic"?

Just a thought. no big deal.
