Forum Improvement Suggestions

1. Move "Post" over to the right after "Return to Message List", so people will be less likely to hit post when they might prefer to preview their message.
2. Have four sections of the forum,
- Beginners
- Experienced
- Developers
- Forum Problems/Improvement
specifically so beginners would be less likely to be confused or turned off by arcane posts unrelated to beginners questions.
For those who don't like multiple forums, could add a button or preferences option that re-combines the four into one for their particular access.
3. Have buttons to click on to make selected text bold, etc; and some better way to break up quoted text other than manually going thru and adding/removing quote tags (which often results in "broken" posts, which I know I have accomplished on occasion, and others also); and have a selection of smileys that can be clicked on to place into text.
4. And a built-in spell checker could be...interesting.
