I'm just grateful they finally fixed the glitch that allows me to post photos again.

As to the "new and improved" forum functionality ... *zips lips*

I don't know who wrote this software that powers the Finescale and Scaleauto forums, but they should be embarrassed by the search features.  

Quite frankly I think the recent site upgrades were more of a downgrade than upgrade and took away more functionality than they added.

Something is odd. In 05-08-2012, I used the “Search our
Community” for “anti-reflective optics NOT fiber” for 389 items.
Yet today (11-17-2012) the same search had only 2 items!

Occasional factual, grammatical, or spelling variations are inherent to this thesis and should not be considered as defects, as they enhance the individuality and character of this document.

The ability to search thread titles only would be very helpful. Even if we could just search specific forums sections only, it would be better than what we have now (which is searching the entire forum for your term anywhere, in any post).
I love the forums, but if you are trying to search for something specific, you get tons of irrelevant hits returned and it is frustrating to separate the wheat from the chaff as it were.
