would be useful to give the surfer to look things up alphabetically as well as the current way (date)
There is "options" button at the end of the forum threads -view, but you can order by views & posts, but not yet by the name. Maybe that will change on the next version of the forums software.
the Theme of Your Own may be divided into various subthemes (categories) that are easier to identify and access
Having subforums is not good... the new posts won't show up in the forums -view (frontpage) and it's not easy to find more then a few posts to each one of those subforums.
Keep those ideas coming,
