Am I the only one who thinks it's hard to recognize links within forum posts? In case I'm not, I created a userstyle to make links more obvious (steel blue).

You're not the only one, it's almost impossible to tell links from text in this forum.

Sometime soon (perhaps next week) I'll be working on a complete rebuild of the website in a more structured and maintainable way and this is certainly one thing that could be improved along the way.

akiwiguy is already doing that, have you been in touch with him about it? wouldn't want to see all the work duplicated. (as discussed in the volunteer meeting)

He was doing it, but I don't think he got very far at all. I haven't heard anything about it since.

he says, 3 days after the meeting. You haven't heard anything because you haven't asked, let me guess?

Sorry, I missed that there was a renewed effort to rebuild the website.

well, there was a meeting on tues, where akiwiguy stated he was "working on it". That's about the same as what you said - you'll "be working on it"

I'm not gonna judge whether that's renewed effort or not.
