For one, the member list is back. Also, I redid news and article links so they're prettier and more search engine friendly. On the homepage the news and article boxes now have buttons to send you to the post news and post article pages respectively, if you're logged in. I don't think everyone knew exactly how to post news and articles, and this hopefully will make it easier.
Lastly, I updated the links on the latest posts section of the homepage. The links now go straight to the most recent post in the thread. I'm not totally sure how I feel about this update. Sometimes when the latest post is down at the bottom of the page, the thread can seem slow loading. This is because normally when you load a page it can load faster than you can scroll down to the bottom. However since it's taking you straight to the post it, it can sort of skip down to the bottom with intermittent pauses. Personally, this often really bugs me on many forums that have huge threads with billions of huge images in user signatures.
Let me know what you think, particularly on that last update.
