FT Headers on the bottom of the screen?
Not sure where to put this--Technical Issues, perhaps?--but is there a way to put the FT header (the one that allows you to jumpt to the four main forums), the sub-header (the one that says "FlyerTalk forums > [Forum Name] > [Forum Subname]) and maybe also the "new posts" link on the bottom of each webpage instead of only having them at the top?
I ask only because it is a little annoying (to me, maybe not to anyone else), to scroll through a thread, perhaps post something, and then have to scroll all the way back up the screen to click on a few forum or on the new posts link or whatever. It just seems ineffecient to me. Being able to click on the links at the bottom of the screen would save (marginally) some time and probably reduce eye strain (as rapid scrolling seems to wear on people's eyes...or so I hear).
I'm probably not explaining it very well, but it is just a thought, and I was curious if anyone else has expressed any interest or desire for this. I know there is the FT "forum jump" deal at the bottom of a webpage, so maybe that resolves most of this, but what about adding the "new posts" link to it?

included in the links at the bottom of the page is a link called 'Top' which returns you to the top of the forum? Perhaps this might be easier than scrolling?

Moving over to Technical Issues.... does not appear to be any action for Talkboard.
