* Search can be ordered chronologically or reverse chronologically!
* Creating a new thread is now a new page, hopefully there will be fewer accidental thread creations.
And some little things: the search form is a little easier to use now (better defaults, you can now click on the labels instead of trying to hit the radio button), you can search easily for a user's posts from the user info page.
Actually it's probably only about 5 times, but still.
I suspect the issue might be due to the login cookies being https-only, make sure when you go to the site you use https://, otherwise your browser won't send cookies that it has. When you log in you get shunted over to https, but if you're visiting from an old bookmark or otherwise saved URL you might be going back to http://
I might just need to make this redirect every http request over to https.

Though if you're looking for ideas, on a high-resolution (1080p)display, there's a TON of empty space.
It'd be cool if you could make an option to choose the size of the text, links, and maybe have a few more links on the front page.
Good idea, though this is just going to exacerbate the issue with the table being too wide. It isn't too immediately straightforward how to get that from the DB yet, though.
I was thinking about removing the "Started at" column from the table, does anyone find that useful anyway?
@robotortoise:
I am definitely not going to be adding customization functions like that.
Use your browser's zoom functionality.

Not sure if there's a reason for this, but I think "User Name" to "Password" is more logical.
There is the asterisk indicating that a thread or post was updated since your previous login (I think that's how it worked...), do you find that helpful? I could add a search for "posts since your previous login" which would complement that somewhat.

I was considering to have a spreadsheet ready on the first post for those that want to search for their specific sample albums or games that used a particular instrument in a much easier fashion for the instrument thread as an example.
Is this a possibility?

Also, imo showing who last replied to a thread is more useful than who created the thread.
I agree that the last replying user thing would be nice to have. Unfortunately I suck at SQL so I'm having a hard time getting that working without taking too long.
Is there some way you could have a third party handle it? I dunno. Most of these threads usually use vBulletin.
Anyway, yeah, the asterisk thing would be sweet if you could implement that at least. Or maybe a little icon saying "NEW" to the left of the hyperlink? I dunno, I'm not a design guy.
