I don't mind the current header. If someone were to come up with a new one that were better suited to the forum's intentions, then sure, I'd be willing to change it. At this point, though, it's not exactly a priority. I have to wonder a little bit how many entries a header contest would have for the moment.

The forum's still about learning, after all. When you see a stack of books (unless you're rather conditioned ) you generally wouldn't think of school or university straight away. It still fits in with the new direction in that sense.

Speaking of which, I'll probably have the new forum rules up there tonight. You'll have to let me know what you think.

Good job on the rules, but I really don't see why the IE Homework Help thread isn't in this forum. It would be surprisingly logical.

Steal the thread. They won't mind

Lol. We discussed that a little while back, it was generally decided that the I.E. thread's existence would, if anything, help this forum's popularity - especially since there is a link here in both its opening post and in the thread's caption.

It certainly seems to me at this point that the most effective way of attracting new members here is through links in our sigs, and redirecting people here from more popular forums if the material is suitable. Loungin' particularly - some people want serious threads, and due to Loungin's nature that almost never happens to the extent that the creators want it to.

If you wish to help out the forum, it would be great to see even more signature links or redirections. These have been very effective so far, and muchly appreciated.

Wait, you want me to get rid of my dots for a...... a link?

Preposterous! Keep dreaming, mate

Well, not any more there isn't. However there is a link to your new subforum in the thread. And as a courtesy I added a link to this forum in my header.

Changing the topic briefly:

Does anyone have any suggestions for the Index + Relevant Links thread? I've been constantly bothered by the lack of categories; maybe you could tell me which ones you think appropriate? It seems much more efficient to have a discussion of the aforementioned here, rather than one through two-way private messages.

Just for the record, I think the header looks very unique and fine, however simple it may be.

Nobody asked for your opinion, Ryan.

Ha, I've got a good signature that will get us some visitors.

Go on, then.

It's not allowed.

I'll have to take your word for that.

So I suppose nobody will care for the renaming of "Education" to "Academia" in the forum header I edited?
