I saw especially with everything you've done, it helps. I can just go to your front page to find what I'm looking for, or jump to your last if I'm following the thread.

Regarding making a how to guide, I think there is a lot of room for interpretation on how to implement it. I'm really just creating hyperlinks of posts or threads. I think it's too easy to really make a how to guide. I think the only thing I had to think about was how to customize the hyperlinks which I just did each one separately.

Lastly I definitely do not lay claim that I came up with the idea. With journals, we as members really take ownership and want to make the experience of reading through it appealing. Until my Wife builds me a blog site, it's really the only way to organize my progress publicly. I think vendors and their threads take ownership very much the same as we do our journals. Spending just a bit of time laying down the index foundation will help potential buyers, like me find the information we are looking for. I don't like answering the same question over and over. I'm sure it will still happen, maybe less frequently. Updated order lists, group buys, significant updates, pricing, pictures, videos...

Then give us your interpretation. If somebody doesn't like it, they can make suggestions or ignore it. This is a not-so-obvious idea/feature that deserves some publicity. It's also something that authors should be encouraged to implement.

It's not how easy it is, it's if it will it help others. I'm guessing that a LOT of ppl on here don't know how to insert a link or how to find the link to a specific post.

And it doesn't have to be your idea - just give credit where credit is due. Although I get the impression that you independently "discovered" this.
