1. Euforum: Long subject lines

I love the new forum. Lots of good work has gone into it already. One tiny improvement idea. The very top line OpenEuphoria: subject_goes_here tends to wrap to the next line if it gets really long. This causes the Newer button to reposition itself on my screen. I find myself having to keep moving my mouse either up or down to get the next message. I realize this is a minor inconvenience, but would make it much easier to zip through messages when you're just browsing.

To prevent wrapping I suggest you shorten the wording.
'Reply with quote' change to 'Quoted reply'
'Create new message' change to 'Create a post'
'Message list' change to 'List posts'

To prevent the buttons from moving their relative position on the screen, I suggest that the buttons [Older] [Newer] etc ... be placed above the message Title.

Just testing.

There is a limit and it was reached with the prior message.

I changed those. As for the subject, should I truncate and add ... for long subjects?
