Ask and you shall receive... seriously, it has always been there:
Look at the bottom of every page on ScubaBoard, Click "FAQs and Help" and then click on Smilies.
BTW, we are working on the broken Smilies.
I am reading a thread on a sub forum eg. Thailand and if I want to read another thread on Thailand. In the old day I just have to click Thailand on the heading and its home page will appear. But now I have to click on eg. Asia instead and then re-enter Thailand.
Awesome upgrade, is it possible to allow the user to configure how many posts are displayed per thread page? Like right now its set at 10 posts, with 21 pages.
Here's an FYI, for those that peruse for interesting threads or new replies using "Watched Forums" instead of Recent Posts.
You may not be interested in EVERY new thread or reply in a Watched Forum, but you do want to be notified if new stuff appears. The solution is Mark (just one forum) as "Read".
In the old SB, that function was in the menu, but now the only item in the drop down menu is Mark ALL forums as "Read."
Instead, to mark the uninteresting threads within a given forum as read without clicking on each of them, navigate to the top of the forum by clicking the tiny forum name that lives just under the ScubaBoard logo at the top of the page.
Then click "Mark Read"
Voila! All threads are now marked Read, just in that one forum.

I really like that I can upload multiple pictures at once now.

Related Note: As near as I can tell, there is a 10 image/post limit. You probably already know that the maximum images size is 800 pixels in either (or both) height & width. You can load larger ones but the software will reduce it so the max isn't exceeded.

Actually, there is another image management feature I am even more excited about, but it isn't quite working properly yet: Manual image resizing and text wrap-around.
This image was inserted at almost screen width and manually dragged to resize. Just click on the image when editing and you will see for "handles" in the corners that you can click & drag. That works fine now. There should be a little menu that pops up to set up text wrap-around, but it isn't coming up consistently. I had to manually edit the BB code to make this example work. Working on it.
Oh, and have you noticed the new Heading feature in the menu (image above). Very cool. It automatically sets a larger font size and bold on selected text.
This is the menu that should pop-up when the image is selected while editing:
You can make an image a click-able hypertext link.
