Things I miss about the old Google groups

Well that's odd - the little red "unread post" icon is only displaying next to the actual unread posts now - I'm sure I saw them up on the Board index page earlier...

I've been able to attach images to messages by using the "upload attachment" tab found below the message composer. Does that work for anyone else?

When using Chrome, the "Choose File" button in the "Upload attachment" tab appears to do nothing, and then a long time later (a minute? Maybe not that long) a file selection dialogue pops up. After selecting a file, another file selection dialogue popped up for each extra time I had pressed the Choose File button. :-/ Now when I press the Choose File button again, the dialogue appears straight away. Hmmm. Maybe a one-off problem. We'll see if my attachment appears...

Regarding the little red "unread post" icons - I see now that they don't appear on the Board index page, but do appear one level down from there. One extra click required, but that's ok.

I installed a plugin called tapatalk for anyone interested in using a mobile app version of the forum. I have an android tab (5") and blackberry and the app works nicely on both.

It's $2.99 in the both appstores (appworld, market) that I looked at.

As of now I've only used it for a couple of hours, so I can't recommend it jut yet, but like I said, so far so good.
