Thanks so much for the feedback. However, I'm confused what you mean. On the portal page, the latest posts are the first thing you see near the top of the page. The problem is that I have been getting sooooo many Tech Support security questions lately, and I would really like to focus on my programming forums. Therefore, although they are really the latest posts, I have filtered out all of the Tech Support questions and renamed the table "Featured Threads" so as to still be accurate.

On the forum index page, I have gotten rid of the detailed info about the last post in addition to forum descriptions. My forum index was just soooooo long with this info and this way is cleaner and gives a better overview of all we have to offer. I'm just a bit worried that the latest post details are missed.

In addition, we get a LOT of newbies in the windows Tech Support forums. I'm worried that the fact that my links aren't underlined confuses them. A lot of computer newbies associate links with being underlined. And when they're not, they don't realize that it is navigation they can click on to go somewhere else.

I am also looking for ways to promote my web development and website promotion forums. I really want to increase my web developer community like my Tech Support community.
