Ok, as the site is becoming more popular, I am becoming able to adjust for the way you are all trying to use the site.

I got some good feedback from Dr Ho on some needed improvements.  I have cleaned up the left menus a bit, and am considering adjusting some of the things displayed in the sidebars (like reducing the number of recent comments, moving/hiding the weather display, etc.

You may have noticed the announcement in the side bar as well.  This is sort of my way of pointing out important content on the site.

I also edited some of the information on the Create Content page to make it a bit more clear what each of the tools do.

I also cranked up the caching, so the site is running a lot faster now, though it may cause delays when you post, I'm not sure.

Start testing out the site, and if you run into problems, feel free to hit me up using the "Contact Us" form linked at the top of every page :-)

Side note:

There is a known issue regarding the RSS feed.  I currently have to generate this by hand, so it doesn't get updated regularly.  This should be fixed in the near future, but for the next few days don't rely on the RSS feed too much :-)
