More bugs than the prior version

FIrst I cannot submit this in the "Let us know what you think" link because it wont let you submit even after correctly answering the captcha 6 times.

I guess that means "so much for what you think"

Overall it's not bad but the home forum page is too veritcally  stretched now - it was better as a more compressed grid where on one screen I was able to see the top 20 most recent rows of posts - now I see about 4. That's a huge difference.  Also the captcha in other spots other then the feedback that does not work is problematic. I know it's 3rd party but the implementation is buggy. 

In the form topics themselves the avatars are too small so it's difficult to see who you are responding to.

Filtering on Forums does not work on the user's home page - it results in zero posts. The key in the drop down spt=21 probably does not match the key on the DB - error message such as "Cannot contact reCAPTCHA. Check your connection and try again." when my connection is fine - must be timing out - a very rookie implementation of CAPTCHA.

This makes it nearly impossible to go back and find your prior posts.

So the filtering now works, however the history is still very limited. A feature to filter by thread author would help considerably.
