One feature I'd like if I could find it is "reduce whitespace" as I want to have as many messages per screen as possible instead of having my users (when they come) have to do as much scrolling.  For example, the amount of whitespace around this small text I'm entering is ok but if everything up and down from here had the same whitespace, it would take a whole lot less screenspace.  If this requires a "mod" what Perl file should I look at to try to cut down on whitespace?  

There are other minor formating changes I'd like to move things to further reduce whitespace.  The forum name is repeated a second time below the first.  I'd like to eliminate that line and merge the search tags with the above object.  What file should be looked at for that?

Thanks,
Kirk

I guess that's a request for clarification...  The general idea is I'd like my forum to look as cramped (read information rich) as craigslist.org only better like Eblah.

Could it be that you have mini profiles enabled? This would take up some space and cause for open white space that you don't want. Make it so that only specific fields show in the mini profile so that it doesn't take up the whole page. I hope this helps.



Even if your idea seems whack, stick with it and make it happen.
