Well, I see that some of you have discovered the new thread prefixes. This is a built in feature of vBulletin 3.7 that I just enabled. I'm still playing with that. They don't show up everywhere they should becuase of the heavy customization we have in some places. But I'll get it there soon.

We really need a bigger selection. I just put up a few to see how the feature works. So how about you all make some suggestions, please.

I can relate to Will's comments. Being able to put part of a thread title in another color like the thread prefixes might be better received.

Sorry Will, I didn't notice your post before. I really think this is one to just let go, except for certain forums, not the WW forums.

When I do have time, I read certain ones first and then go back, so again, this helps me. I am a visual person though (pretty colors, shiny tools ).

If you want, I can start writing a mod that would incorporate Jeff's idea (show them if you want). I'll just need some place to test.
