Exactly. So many other forums do this, why not have a business take advantage of the services that TR provides and give some money to the visionaries to maintain the site.

Congrats to DC and I wish them all the luck in the future.

I've freeloaded off of this site for over 3.5 years. I think its perfectly fair for them to plug DC, especially because they're actually a good shop from what I hear. Two birds with one stone I suppose.

Zate how about this format? Ithink it's less crowded.

That looks good i think

Thanks for the helpful feed back. This was an idea I wished to implement a few years ago. I'm glad I was able to help TR and help DC at the same time. That is, afterall, what a community does - and what TR is.

Keep in mind we still have a redesign going on in the background so if you're not in love with the way things look, we hear ya and all we can say is, its in the pipeline!

i like that above and I'll look at doing that, its tricky because of how the tables are built at the time, i dont want to have to hard code a whole bunch of stuff into each forum where possible
