Hi Guys,

Over the next few weeks I'm going to be tweaking various parts of Tiki Central.

Big Change: Google Search bar
The first big change is the Google Search and the quick-links that are on the TC homepage, here:

http://www.tikicentral.com/

(Notice it just below the Tiki Central logo).

The search box does a google search (in a new window) and the buttons below it are quick links to popular sites.

I added this to help out people who have TIki Central set to their homepage, and to perhaps encourage more people to do the same.

Another cool change: Goto New Post
When reading a topic, you'll notice at the top of each page is a link that looks like this:

If you you're on a page with NEW messages, you can click on this to hop down to the new new messages and read from there.

Note: this only works if the new messages are on the current page. If you're on page 2 of the topic and all the new messages are on page 4, clicking this button won't do anything.

However, it is now VERY EASY to spot new messages: just look for the new post Icon on a message:

See, it's all nice and bright and easy to spot. This makes finding the new messages much easier.

PLEASE NOTE:

When eBay or Yahoo makes a change to their website that you don't like, there's not much you can do it about it. But here on Tiki Central, I like to expirement, and when I have something I think people will like, I'll add it. But if people don't like it, I have no problem removing it or changing it. In other words, if something happens to TC that you absolutely hate, don't worry over it, just send me an email.

As always: feedback on the changes can be posted here or in email! I want to hear what you think.

~Hanford
