Josh, forget threaded view. There are Classic users here who are converting to Threads NOT because of threaded view, but because of MySQL. In fact there have been calls for an option to switch off threaded view... I thought you were aware of that... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> Plus threaded view is just a feature - my only qualms with Threads are to do with design.
Sure that my opinion is just my opinion. I don't hide the fact that I think that Threads looks mediocre in terms of style. Let's get one thing straight: I love Infopop, and I love my Classic board. As for Open Topic, it looks better than any other product on the market. I've been an Infopop client for a while now, and I've even bought out a gold license for a future Threads upgrade - sounds almost like an oxymoron <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> .
The one thing that worries me is that although Infopop purchased a great and promising product in Threads, some people still prefer to make it look like the ugly duckling in the Infopop family. I mean you can't seriously compare Threads to Open Topic at the moment, right? Not unless you want to play the role of 'Comical Ali'... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
Leaving everything else aside at the moment, the only thing I hope for is that someone starts treating the stylistic element of Threads more seriously. I understand that you and JC do a lot of tweaking, which is not surprising considering how the board looks upon installation. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
On a side note, can you provide a url or two of the most professional-looking Threads boards that you've tweaked? I'm really eager to see a Threads board that has a professional look to it - at least I'll start believing that it
can be done.

Go Cougs!
