  • Forum read markers now updated via AJAX
    
  • Search link now has a context sensitive drop down box. If you're in a forum you can search directly in that forum otherwise you can perform a global search.

  Topic Rating via AJAX
  When rating a topic your submitted rating will be sent to the server via AJAX allowing you to save your rating without having to refresh the page. Additionally, you will now be able to see two more pieces of information when viewing the rating menu drop down: total number of ratings, and your individual rating.
  
  
  Auto resizing of large linked images
  Posted images are automatically resized on-the-fly if they are larger than the available screen width of the browser. Clicking the image displays it full size in a pop-up window. Each reduced image has information above stating how much reduction has taken place and the dimensions of the original image.
