Goodday JPiCans - I want to announce just a few Forum enhancements that have been added in the past week or more... I've been a bit lazy with posting announcements as some of you can tell with the Weekly Newsletter
-- Anyway - it's all good - Better late than never... Right? So... Moving on...
Of course you know - All enhancements ever made to the Forum is for the specific goal of increasing Member participation and definitely to help improve the JPiC Forum experience. For you who are seek visual stimulation - I have enclosed screenshots to accompany
So - without further adieu - The enhancements...
Site Map Changes...
The
JPiC Site Map has been edited just a bit for a better browsing experience. Are you lost, frustrated, or looking for something specific? The site map provides easy browsing at a glance.
We've integrated RSS Feeds into the map so that you can easily add your favorite sub-forum to your RSS Reader of choice and have access to new posts directly on your desktop. All Forum sections appear on the Site Map - The Site Map link of course is included in the Main Navigation menu at the top of each Forum page.

Some of you may have noticed a new button that appears at the bottom section of all Forum posts
(pics below for your viewing pleasure....) -- This button has a dual use actually. Ever see people who post just to get their post count up??? Are you one of those people???? Huh????? Countin posts counts are ya??????
--- And likewise - There are some of us who are lurkers right??? Yep???? Hiding away and layin low????? Ya lurkin' ain't ya??????
Well now - you can simply enjoy posting without being concerned with your post count and without worrying about being a lurker ((tehehehehe))... Simply click the Thank You button to show your appreciation for another Members writing, or their advise, or their good humour, etcetera... Thank You's are counted and shown in all Members' information section.
