Changes to Boards - please read as we go along

First: nice to see you back on the Boards, Richard.

Second: I appreciate the work that's gone into the new forum, and it has clearly introduced a lot of features that were seriously lacking. However I'm finding it a little hard to adjust. I'm sure I'll get there eventually, but I have a few small gripes:

- I had trouble logging in after the forum change. I had to request a temporary password because it wouldn't accept my old one. No-one else seems to have had this trouble so I guess it's just me.

-When posting, the box you get to type into is ridiculously small. Unless you are deliberately trying to discourage the kind of long-winded Posts I regularly come up with, please make the text-entry box much, much bigger.

-The ability to review the entire thread (and copy/paste bits out of numerous Posts) was invaluable. I'm very sorry to see it go.
