In the current FAQ page, nothing identifies an FAQ that has been posted or modified recently. As a result, if a person checks the FAQ page every so often, it can become difficult to tell what's been posted recently. As the number of FAQs grow, this will become more and more the case. Perhaps flagging FAQs that have been posted in the last two weeks or the last 30 days would be in order?

Good point. We'll see if we can come up with something!

Great suggestion. I'm working this weekend to make the FAQ area look identical to the scripts area, including the rating system. It should hopefully be up with any luck by Monday. A few of you have been kind enough to submit loads of them over the past few days. It'll be added to the homepage as well.

I liked your idea so much I went ahead and created a new graphic for the scripts as well and flagged any script within 30 days as new. Thanks Brian!

I didn't think about the script area, but that makes a lot of sense. This works great! Now if we check back every so often, we can see what new tools have been added to the store shelves.

These are and will be good improvements. I hope the ratings on FAQ's will not automatically be factors in the on going contest as I don't think it would be a good idea to change the conditions in the middle of the contest.

Thanks, I made the first step tonight to making it look a little more like the scripts area. You're right about the contest though. Ratings will not be affected for this contest as we are mid-stream. For the next contest though, (Feb 1st), we will probably factor that in as well. Thanks again for all you have contributed!
