Feedback Welcome! (3)

Posted 17 May, 2007 in Feedback

This is the place to post feedback about the site. I get to go first, LOL! One thing I would like to improve on is making the site easier to navigate after logging in and posting comments. Maybe it’s just me, but for some reason when I post a comment the sidebar with all the links disappears and I can’t get back to the homepage. Does anyone know how to fix that? If not I guess I have some reading to do!
