LOL...ok, how about this then: a more visible "new private message" alert? On the VB boards I visit, if you have a new private message the "welcome, blah blah blah" box is shaded bright red...on the UBB boards, *I* know to look for the flashing envelope, but some new users don't, and it's hard to see for some of the "older" users (or those of us that check in with our phones). On my 6.5.5 forum I had installed a PM "pop up" feature that I'd carried over from Classic, I believe...and an audible car horn! grin
