YOU ARE AWESOME!!!
I am soooo happy with the COLOR change thing!
HOORAY!!

Another question for someone.... I use Outlook Espress to CHEAT on the html...format as I like.. change to source... then copy and paste the MAGICAL html into the posting window... (only on big stuff)...
Is there a similar cheater method available somewhere else...like for people who have AOL? OR Mac's(Netscape Nav.)(which I have at work?
Just wondering..

5. The ability to mark a thread for later reading, rather than having to "bump" the thread

My one big technical criticism is that interesting threads scroll off too quickly, before commentary has a chance to accumulate. The chronological most current threads contain too many duplications. Would it be possible to sort the threads by activity, rather than by time, keeping the most active threads on top?

If there is a God in heaven, please don't allow smilies on FreeRepublic!

I agree! I Hate smilies! They make me do this --->

I want to do this to anyone who posts a smiley --->

If there were no more smilies, I'd look like this --->

Now to settle in and watch the discussion.

I hate smilies.

Come on Publius6961... it is not THAT BIG of a deal...

Has been a pretty good thread with LOTS of reasonable, thoughtful discussion.. and it seams a little extreme to me to be name calling...

Exactly my point a few posts above. And, just to get it out there now, I don't think Publius is a stupid idiot. My post was simply to illustrate how childish name calling is in any thread, much less a thread where there has been NO malicious intent whatsoever.

"MY COMMENTS" title to stay as "MY COMMENTS" if the only new post was one's own... I might feel differently if I had DSL... but sadly, on dial up I hate to click on the NEW POSTS just to find out the only thing new was fROM ME!!!

Hint: open more than one browser window in Free Republic. I have 14 open in IE at all times, 2 (Latest Posts and Comments to me) are exclusively for FR.

As for your other suggestions, it is always helpful to ping the man who controls the code when making suggestions.
