also .. is it possible to allow only about 200 characters to show up in the news bit ... and if people want to read the rest of the post they can click on the "read more" or "see whole post" which will bring them to the actually post in the News forum ...

That is what I am most interested in doing ? did anyone manage to do this ?

where exactly in the home_news template do I insert the break? sorry for being such a newbie ..

Looking at this i think the answer is to add :
<td bgcolor="{ pagebgcolor }"><br></td> takeing out the spaces before and after pagebgcolor
to the first line of home_newsbit template.
There must be a better way to do this but can't find out how for now.
