I also prefer threads instead of posts.

I actually do too, however, neither the posts or topics features are as good as the one prior to conversion except for the one that can be accessed at the following link:

http://www.maritime-sda-online.org/ubbth...mp;fromsearch=1

This link even includes topics within the private forums into which a person has access. The above link can also be found in the Navigation Bar at the top of the main page (listing of forums) as well as in some forums that have been updated accordingly. It can also be found at the bottom center of the main page or listing of forums.

Because of this I am thinking of removing the 24 most recent topics/posts completely.

Yes, I agree that it is better to remove this feature completely and leave just the messages within the last seven days, which is more complete.
By the way, Daryl, our pictures look distorted now but we can’t correct them because there is no way to access the link. Will this option in the future be included in the profile again?

I am going remove this feature in favour of the other new features and see how it goes.

I will keep the 24 most recent forum topics features at the following two links:

http://www.maritime-sda-online.org

http://www.maritime-sda-online.org/topics.html

As far as the picture distortion and link goes, when I get a chance down the priority list,I will check and see what the story is there.
